Hallelujah~!

Okay folks a quick reminder.... Remember when it comes to politics there are strong opinions on every issue. However, I would say a lot of political viewpoints are driven by emotion. You are going to disagree with someone at some point in time politically. If you don't like the opinion of someone, you do not have to comment. Something I am still learning. So if you can not take the heat, stay out of the kitchen. If you can not handle the opposing viewpoints and do not want to be debated on it, then do not join in on threads where you know you will simply get upset. Remember this. We are to be Christians and Christ Like first and foremost. If you can not be that way and be in political forums, then please stay out. Yes this site has more conservatives then it does liberals. Yes, one or two people here with strong conservative viewpoints come across harshly and when they do they are dealt with. However, Republican, Democrat, Liberal, Moderate, or Conservative, or what ever mix you are, as long as you love Christ, then you are welcome here. Lets be careful not to paint everyone with a brush other then that. Please do not step into the personal realms of attack. Debate issues not people, and in politics this is very hard to do, and I have been guilty of failing at this myself before. Since this thread is getting heated up I am going to set it on ice for a bit to cool off. Closed for two days.

Welllll....I don`t have any use for television, or movies, or radio even for that matter. I find it all very depressing, foul, full of filth and sinful ideas. as much as I do like HGTV, I don`t like all the gay people being portrayed in 75% of the home and garden shows, so even that has become distasteful to me. The childrens programming has the same problem as HGTV. Sad that our world has come to that. I don`t read anything that isn`t Christian or research anymore either, just doesn`t feel good. But wine I don`t have a problem with...drinking with non Christian friends I have no problem with, because they know where I am in my spiritual life. Abraham drank and fell asleep naked in his tent...his son was cursed because he didn`t respect his father`s nakedness. Genisis 10 I think it is. Says nothing about Abraham sinning here. I am not saying we are okay to be drunks...we are not...but sometimes when you are drinking with friends you do get drunk. Not a good thing by any means, but there is nothing wrong with being social with non Christian friends...many of them come to Christ. When you eat with friends you often don`t feel well because you ate too much too:) Wine is wine is wine...juice is juice is juice...ever try drinking bad juice... It sure doesn`t taste like wine. Wine is made on purpose...you cannot drink bad juice. I have a neighbor i drink with once in a while...he is an alcoholic and a drug user. Been praying for him for 5 years, preaching too, drinking the odd time...a couple of times in excess. Guess what...today he doesn`t drink anymore...no drugs either as far as I know. he`s starting to get in touch with God...his heart has been changing over the last year in a big way.
