Worry!

Oh, that's easy! Jesus Christ Christian. Get it!!!

Wasn't Jesus Jewish?

A dear friend told me about this site. (Asking very lovingly)...do you not want me here? I'll go if you all want me to go.

No need to leave, i was a bit worried you might be lost.

R U serious? Maybe 'they' need a wake up call.;-)

Yes, I'm serious.

From LP.org
"The Libertarian Party is committed to America's heritage of freedom: individual liberty and personal responsibility; a free-market economy of abundance and prosperity; a foreign policy of non-intervention, peace, and free trade."




In the ongoing saga of the People v. the Government, the U.S. Congress just won another round by defeating the Hinchey-Rohrabacher Amendment with a vote of 161-264. This is the amendment to an appropriations bill which would have defunded federal efforts to prosecute (or persecute, as many might suggest) medicinal marijuana users in the states where compassionate use laws have already been passed....


What is truly scary about this outcome is that it exposes both Republicans and Democrats alike for what they really are - pompous elitists who place party politics above the will of the people. By their actions, they have condemned countless Americans to needless pain and suffering, arrest, exile or death.


Only 15 Republicans voted for the bill, despite public approval ratings of up to 80% on the issue. During floor debate, the Republican opponents of the bill made very slippery usage of the truth.

According to Rep. Elton Gallegly, (R-California), "Marijuana is not a medicine and should not be legalized for any purpose."


This sentiment was echoed when Rep. Mark Souder (R-Indiana) stated, "'Marijuana has never been proven as safe and effective for any disease," despite the compelling evidence that it has been proven effective. While an FDA study has not been conducted, the anecdotal evidence is that none of the tens of millions of medicinal and recreational users throughout the country have died from cannabis use.


Marinol was repeatedly mentioned, but opponents of the bill failed to mention that many medical marijuana users either can't keep Marinol down or can't afford its expensive price tag. For most Americans, $400 to $800 a month is indeed a tough pill to swallow. (I bet the lobbyists of the pharma companies are paid very well .)...


To their credit, Democrats used several strong States' rights arguments in defense of the amendment. In fact, Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-California) expressed it well with, "It would leave to the discretion of the states how they would alleviate suffering of their citizens. This is a States' rights issue."


Democrats, joined by Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-California), expressed other points in favor of the Amendment which echoed the strong 10th Amendment argument recently made by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.


Also to be noted is that there was significant Democratic support for a measure which would have defunded certain Federal efforts. To be sure, it would have reduced neither the deficit nor taxes, but it would have shifted some money to more constitutional and sometimes more worthwhile purposes....

...my brownies look funny and I can't find the powdered sugar!!!!

Wasn't Jesus Jewish?

Yes, but he didn't like what the Jews were preaching so he told them to shove it, so they killed him, to show the others that you cannot mess with the Law.... or something like that.;-)

I'm worried for you and your brownies.

Thanks. I decided to try the cake version with two eggs. That might be the issue. But not having powdered sugar is a real bummer. It's really nice to worry about this rather than the big stuff. ;-)

Not a Bible School girl so I'm just going to ask.

Didn't the Roman's play a large part in his death?

Jesus' death was to fulfill prophesy.

Well the big worry is how do they taste?

And can you pass a couple this way?

I would forever and ever.

Still too hot. I'll make some when I get down there and share.

Jesus' death was to fulfill prophesy.

I don't think he was killed to fulfill prophesy. He was killed for violating Jewish Law and also saying he was the son of God. The end result for believers is that his death was a fulfillment of prophecy.

Aw just because they look funny doesn't mean they won't taste good. RU makin' frosting too?

They exacted the sentence based on a request of the Jewish leaders, and the people. Long story short, the Jewish leaders were asked to choose between killing two people, one a murderer and the other Jesus. They chose Jesus so Pilate had him killed. That's where the washing his hands part comes in.

Best plan I've heard all day.

Oh, that's easy! Jesus Christ Christian. Get it!!!

2000 years of inter-Christian warfare over differing interpretations of Jesus Christian says the idea is anything but easy.

I'm worried, very worried that your solution to worry and concern may spark a religious war.

I'm telling you, try the Ghiradelli brownies some time. They are GRAYT!

Best plan I've heard all day.

But, beware...you might just have to enjoy them on my balcony!!!

Don't worry. We want everybody here, just be prepared to take heat AND dish it out.

Oh, I can take the heat, but all I have to dish out is love and truth. Hope that's ok!!!

Many bakers worry over their product being good. Maybe they should skip cooking classes and pray to the Lord Baby Jesus.

Therein lies the problem. Ghandi himself said it best, Christians want to believe in Jesus, but not act like Jesus. The organized religion today is a far cry from what Jesus did and taught. Keep in mind he said follow me (i.e. do like me) not worship me.

You must stay, because many of us have been here too long, and we need difference of opinion. Stay and play, and don't worry the small stuff.

Would this war take place in Sowal?

I everything that Ghiradelli does.

Oh please, don't worry. I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see...the One who died and rose again is alive and living in me!!!
