I stopped wondering about that some time ago. I think that as long as what a person believes allows them to live a fuller, richer life, and treat others in a kinder, gentler way, then it is all good.

Peace & Love!

The reason I think it matters if people understand what their church teaches is because we live in a democracy. People vote based on whatever level of knowledge and understanding they have.

Very important decisions that have a dramatic impact on the fate of our country are being made based on public opinions that are skewed by misinformation and ignorance.

According to a 2003 poll, nearly seven in 10 Americans believed it likely that Saddam Hussein was personally involved in the Sept. 11 attacks. Completely untrue.

Serious issues are at stake. Lives are at stake. The future of our country is at stake.

The Christian Right voting block was a major factor in determining the outcome of the last 2 Presidential elections.

IMHO, we are now deep into a pile of smelly stuff due to some decisions that were made based on misinformation.

Ignorance and misinformation can be very dangerous.

Yes, there are teachings that promote peace and harmony, but only within the group. It's all that us against them stuff that causes so much trouble. I don't care if you believe in the Great Pumpkin, as long as you don't try to get it elected.
