So much that so many people have done in years gone by has been horrible and certainly should not be forgotten but at what point should people quit looking back and begin looking forward to better themselves?

Rev Jackson should be speaking for the 20 Million humans being used as slaves around the world at this very moment. Look at Sudan, just one of many regions where slavery continues today.

Our Christian celebration of Christmas has NOTHING to do with buying gifts. If Christians, who spend so much time carrying on about stores that won't use the word "Christmas", would spend some of that time and energy remembering Christ at Christmas, what a wonderful thing that would be.

I'm religious and I'm white but I'm not standing with the Republicans... I'm making a political statement by supporting Ron Paul, plus I like what he has to say. The Republicans and Democrats are one in the same, I wish someone would fess up to that issue...
When the election comes around, if the current crop of Repub's is what I have to choose from, I will unfortunately not vote at all.

Would be nice if they did this AND did something for a relative in which they have been in judgment of, particularly those whose lifestyles are similar to Britney's. Most people won't tolerate from their relatives what they are willing to tolerate from friends and strangers.Now THAT'S Christian love!

Christians Urged to Rally Against Disney's Removal of 'God' from Movie Ad

Although I think it is ridiculous that Disney removed the phrase, I don't understand why so many people are upset by this. Disney is not supporting the film because they want to spread the word of God, they are doing it strictly for financial gains. Sure, it's great if a kid sees this and learns about God but there's nothing warm and fuzzy or even Walt Disneyish about this, it's all about money... Disney Corporation doesn't even support Christian beliefs.
