HAPPY BIRTHDAY OBIE!


Now...
As I was driving home from the gym this morning, I saw a bumper sticker on the car in front of me that said, "It's not God that I don't like, it's his fan club that I can't stand." On the way to the gym, I was behind someone that had one that said, "Endless war" with the "less" crossed out and with "this" above it. In the end it said, "End this war". They also had some typical World Peace stickers and even one that said, "Iraq for sale".

I can get so pissy when it comes to these things. For one, I know Christians make a lot of mistakes. I make a ton. I can be really rude and mean to people just because I'm cranky. Yet, to say that shows you believe in Him but you choose not to follow Him. That's just crazy. On the ones with the war and world peace... I might not agree with every part of the war, but I support our troops and our President's decision... I also know that there is no such thing as world peace if we're going to have any sort of diversity and let anyone have any decision making freedom. Sometimes, we have to have wars so in the end the people can have "peace" amongst themselves, possibly with more of their surrounding neighbors, and then with the rest of the world. Anywho, there's my two cents.

You know I had to comment on this :-)

Yes, I support our troops.
No, I do not agree with this war.
I disagree with Bush and a lot of his decisions, but he is the president and I have to respect that, even though I disagree with a lot of his decisions. All I know is...it's a tough job and not one I would want.

Nuff said from me. We live in a free country where we can have different opinions, and for that I am thankful.

Yep, I knew you wouldn't be able to resist. I am so thankful for our freedoms, even when some other people's freedoms piss me off. Yet, I would have it no other way. :)

Don't let them get you down.

Those sorts of things do make me want to get a bumper sticker that says (well you have to follow the link):

Hmm. The link didn't take... What it says is:

Except for ending slavery, fascism, nazism and communism -- war has never solved anything

Hannah said...

Nice... I like that one.

P.S. The link does work, you just have to know that it ends in .gif :)

I can be the same way sometimes. I support our troops 100%. I don't agree with some of the things old George has done, but for the most part, I think he's alright. He doesn't have total control of what happens though, and like Keith said, it's not a job I'd like. Did you notice how much he's aged since he became prez? Anyway, yeah I'm very grateful for our freedoms, but I can understand it being frustrating sometimes.
