William, your comment about the lack of support the president got in the south made me think, so I looked up the results of the 2012 presidential election. Barack Obama got 38.4% of the votes in Alabama, that's nearly 40%, which means almost 60% of Alabama voters voted for M. Romney, the Mormon guy. And now some are refering to President Obama as Jesus, or a saviour figure. I noticed Jamie Foxx's name mentioned, since he's a comedian you'd think he could find some great material for his act from those two guys.( I could )
Imagine how big of an impact the 'real' AntiChrist will make when he shows up...and he probably won't even demand that 'american christians ' give up their guns.

Think about this, in one person (Obama) we have a man that people are comparing to Jesus, and marketing him the saviour of america...and in the other (Romney) is a man who's religion believes in men becoming god's in their own worlds. The quest for power is indeed intoxicating...
I pray both of them come to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour.

Just so you can see that someone is 'paying attention' ...you must mean the price of gas is almost $4.00 a gallon in your area.....because oil is about $4.00 a quart around this area.
But the times, they are changing, for sure. I'm so grateful we have something to focus on besides the negative, the positive promise of Jesus' return (the one and only Saviour) and the coming Kingdom of God, when all men will behold the Glory of God... that's great news.

I guess if you were on some denominational love boat it could be considered negative.

I'm not going to take that statement personally, but for those who are chosing a boat (to get on), are you suggesting that the right one would be the "nondenominational no-love boat" in order to see clearly that world events going on around us are to be considered as 'positive' and should be the focus of followers of Christ?
btw: In no way was I thinking or suggesting that 'you' were being negative, I was just offering encouragement and a reminder that we have much better things to focus on, should we choose.
