American Vision : Rebranding the Democrat Party

You need to re-read the First Amendment.

http://patriotupdate.com/ : "The Value of True Patriotism" - Patriot Update

Fri, 1 Oct 2010 20:38:04 +0000

I'll be honest. I've never heard of PatriotPost. I think it's great we have all of these conservative websites out there spreading liberty. Vision to America partners with Patriot Update on many projects instead of competing with them. What point is there in calling someone else's website garbage if it advances the cause of liberty. Sounds like envy to me which is the very source of Socialism that we are fighting so hard to stop. I think we are all true Patriots who are out to defeat Socialism and bring about liberty through personal responsibility.

American Vision : Secular Religious Ideology Gone Mad

I'd like to see where Gary urged us to vote for McCain. I don't ever remember him saying such a thing.

American Vision : Is Israel's Land Prophetically Significant?

Thu, 2 Sep 2010 23:44:54 +0000

Barbara, it is obvious you didn't bother to read the article fully or refused to look up the passages given. God clearly states that all land promised to Israel was given to them and occupied by them. In case I can't make it clear enough for you I'll be happy to show you what God said about this in Joshua 21:43-45: "So the LORD gave Israel all the land which He had sworn to give to their fathers, and they possessed it and lived in it. And the LORD gave them rest on every side, according to all that He had sworn to their fathers, and no one of all their enemies stood before them; the LORD gave all their enemies into their hand. Not one of the good promises which the LORD had made to the house of Israel failed; all came to pass."

American Vision : The Second Generation of Faithfulness

Thu, 2 Sep 2010 16:14:19 +0000

Richard, It sounds like you are implying that incest is a good thing. Just because man acts a certain way doesn't mean that it is righteous. Even through man's sinfulness and rebellion God works His glory in all things. Even the lowest of us have a part in God's plan. Judas rebelled against God. Yet even though this act of rebellion led to the murder of Christ, our salvation was secured. While Judas' act was necessary for our salvation, his rebellion wasn't rewarded but punished.

American Vision : Are You a Red-Letter or a Black-Letter Christian?

Fri, 27 Aug 2010 17:51:45 +0000

L.J., I think you are missing the point. The entire Bible is the Word of God so red letters only detract from the whole picture. Red letters are not helpful in understanding the Bible. Reading it and working through passages does.

American Vision : Should Rape be Illegal?

Wed, 11 Aug 2010 23:26:51 +0000

Where does logic come from? You're borrowing from God to make your case. You can't do that. You can't account for right or wrong either. Things just are. Without God, those things don't exist.

American Vision : Should Rape be Illegal?

Wed, 11 Aug 2010 15:39:09 +0000

But why should they "OUGHT to live this way..."? It may benefit (yet there is no such thing as "good" or "benefit" outside of God. Things just are) others not to live this way. It benefits the thief and rapist to take from others. Sure it doesn't benefit the ones being taken from but without God, why does any of that matter? It just is. Where is this concept of freedom and slavery outside of God? There is more freedom for the individual NOT to follow these arbitrary man-made rules. He's free to make any decision he wants. Under your idea of freedom, man is still a slave to other men and there is no morality attached to it. It's one group of people imposing there will on another.

American Vision : Should Rape be Illegal?

That doesn't demonstrate why it is wrong, only that a group of people have determined to live in a particular way because they believe it benefits them. You've removed the morality of the issue and just made it a social one. With your argument there is no "right to freedom" that we have, just a collective body of people deciding not to rape one another.

American Vision : Should Rape be Illegal?

Marder, you haven't responded to the challenge by Gary to demonstrate why rape is wrong outside of God. You've only made an empty statement to which I say "so what?"

American Vision : Should Rape be Illegal?

Who are you referring to as "Glad your not my Daddy"? If you are referring to Gary you obviously didn't listen to the show.

American Vision : A Plan That Misfired

Fri, 6 Aug 2010 19:45:55 +0000

The fact that only whites were allowed to participate for Germany has some standing.

American Vision : A Plan That Misfired

Fri, 6 Aug 2010 19:45:02 +0000

I think that's a stretch so say that because blacks proved themselves not to be inferior to the Aryan race that Adolf Hitler touted that they are somehow superior. You're reading into what isn't there.

American Vision : This May Be the Healthcare Solution You're Looking For

American Vision : This May Be the Healthcare Solution You're Looking For

Mon, 2 Aug 2010 12:28:08 +0000

John, I know plenty of people who have used Samaritan for years with no trouble. It isn't based on others generosity. You have a monthly premium just insurance (only cheaper) and that premium goes to those who need it for medical expense. BTW it goes DIRECTLY to those who need it. Your monthly premium does NOT go to Samaritan Ministries to then be doled out. So tell me, how are they making money hands over fist? Just like with typical insurance, you don't pay, you don't get your insurance. If you fail to pay then you end up getting kicked out. This isn't a "let's hope some members come through this month" operation. I just talked to a man who has had multiple children, broken bones, sickness, etc. and all has been taken care of with no problems. It works so well for so little because it is insurance without the insurance company.

American Vision : Making Sense of the Conservative Movement

The conservative movement is not by definition necessarily Christian.

American Vision : Exposing the Fed Scam

Fri, 23 Jul 2010 18:08:12 +0000

You've set up a false dilemma. There are more than those options you've placed on the table. God's way is to have individuals and the church provide those things, not the government.

American Vision : A Few Words on Poverty

Mon, 19 Jul 2010 03:10:31 +0000

How about re-reading or actually reading the entire article? Joel covers your objections quite well within this one article. Only so much can be covered in such a short amount of space but these areas were at least touched on.

American Vision : Charles Stanley Condemns Socialism

Thu, 15 Jul 2010 00:00:18 +0000

It's stealing by the government when the government forces one to pay into Social Security. Those receiving Social Security checks aren't forced to get them. You can refuse them. Every time you accept a Social Security check you are part of the theft. You may have been forced to pay but you are not forced to take from someone else.

You may have earned the money but it was not put into an account for you. That money went to people receiving their Social Security checks every month. You were stolen from for 35 years so that others can piggy-back off of your hard work. Now, the same is happening to those who are paying Social Security so those that are receiving can get their checks. It is theft on a large scale. Every time I get paid the government forcefully takes money out of my earnings and redistributes it to someone else. If that isn't theft then I don't know what is.
