  • Addicted to being defined by dogma.  Politics  is the new dogma.

    Yes. That is a very good point Glis. Thank you for thinking of that. Dogma restricts politics to thus and such just as dogma restricts religion to thus and such. You dare not get out of line or you will be called a Heathen or a RINO/DINO.  AARRGGHH! :( I do not believe that is progress personally. Happy Sunday! :)

  • What has changed? In certain communities and among some ethnic groups, politics begins and ends in the pulpit. Social and political activism is organized through churches. At least it is here where I live. Religion and politics are one and inseparable as we see it here in our town.
