Because some of you have asked for clarification on my last post here it is.
I did not like or dislike Mr. Obama or Mr. McCain I was conflicted. I was unsure who I wanted to win. I would now consider myself an independent, neither left or right. Personally I believe everyone should be this way, then maybe we could all get along. Yes, I do not agree with some things either candidate brought to the table. McCain I believe would have kept digging at this hole we are in, thinking it was the only way out. Obama and his views on the family upset me. If you believe in God at all you would understand my reasoning, and I'm NOT going to get into that! Most people DON'T want to here it, and I don't want to argue! Nor do I want any one who reads this blog to argue. The Bible says to love one another.
The entire point of my previous blog was;
That I WAS discouraged about the outcome but, am NOW excited for President Elect Obama! That prayer and passages from the Bible helped me come to this realization.

Dear Jess--
ReplyDeleteI'm still concerned. You say If you believe in God at all you would understand my reasoning,". Well, I believe in God, and I still don't understand your reasoning.
You did say you din't want to
get into that" and that most people don't want to hear it. By doing this--you leave it all up to speculation on the part of your readers.
As to those who think I am saying that Christians are racists, then I guess they are saying I am a racist because I consider myself a Christian. Remember that being a "Christian" simply means you believe in Christ. It doesn't mean you believe in some particular Christian sect--and there are many. IF they knew ME, they would know that is not the case or I would not love my two bi-racial grandchildren and my wonderful son-in-law.
As my son Sean said (my paraphrase), Christians often hide their racism behind Christianity. To those of your readers who consider themselves "Christians", I say look into your heart and soul.
