Anything that becomes more important to you than God is going to be a problem. Money is the most common thing that takes the place of God, but it can also be another person, your job, your church, any number of things. The Bible doesn't say having money is wrong. It's when you lose your focus on God that it becomes wrong. Keeping God first is the key.

Matthew RJ wrote:We have the same phenomena here in Canada.

People who are young will be liberal or NDP becasue they are poor. As they graduate and get into high paying jobs, they want to look after their own interests and move to the right side of the politcal world.

The question is, do they move because they "realize as they mature that the liberal agenda does not work, and that it is detrimental to spiritual well-being of our country."

Or is it because they are RICH and selfish and care nothing for those who were once poor like they were?
You see, RJ - that's the problem with the way you keep thinking about politics. You assume just because someone is conservative that they are rich, wealthy snobs and are only concerned with amassing more wealth.

If you've paid ANY attention at all to the election we had yesterday, you would have heard that Bush was elected overwhelmingly because people were voting on MORAL issues.

The reason the majority voted on moral issues was because the the most liberal senator in America was running on an immoral platform - one that the majority of Americans could not stomach. They had to be stopped in their tracks. That's why Bush received more votes than any other American President - ever.

And - just because conservatives want to keep more of what they have worked their butts off for instead of re-distributing it in the form of a tax in no way means they are rich or well off.

Socialists just keep wanting to get what they're too lazy to work for.

RJ, I don't buy your liberal spin article. I like the way James Dobson says it:

Dr. Dobson: U.S. Families Won

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - Focus on the Family Action Chairman Dr. James C. Dobson issued the following statement today, extolling the re-election of President Bush and the results in 11 states that approved amendments to their constitutions protecting traditional marriage:

"This election is a resounding victory in the battle for American families. We applaud the re-election of President Bush, who has shown himself a true champion for the family and of traditional values. Those who care deeply about the moral issues facing this nation have cause to be encouraged by the prospect of the Bush administration promoting policies supportive of these values throughout his second term.


"We further celebrate the overwhelming successes of pro-family candidates in other races, and in the 11 states that passed amendments to their constitutions protecting traditional marriage. The victorious difference was made by 'values voters,' who have sent the clear message that morality in America is alive and well. And with Minority Leader Tom Daschle being ousted by the voters of South Dakota, a major obstacle in the path of prudent judicial nominees and sensible legislation has been removed.

"Although unaccountable judges and radical activists have continually pushed their agendas in the public square, traditional marriage continues to be upheld by the American people. The passage of 11 marriage amendments, combined with similar measures passed thus far by six other states, is the result of a tremendous grass-roots effort that has sprung up across the country. As we continue the call for an amendment to the U.S. Constitution, this election's victories once again demonstrate that American voters believe in traditional marriage."
