For example, as a church planting missionary, it is sometimes easy for me to forget the issues our established church pastors deal with that are very real.<BR.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13856253694243784280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11949850.post-1144085822954284702006-04-03T13:37:00.000-04:002006-04-03T13:37:00.000-04:00Joel, awesome post.

I'm assuming you used the opposite ends of the spectrum for illustration purposes. There are a few people out there on the extremes, and they are easily identified and cancel their views out. It is the ones like most of us who are moreRickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05837795128064350021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11949850.post-1144061686643932812006-04-03T06:54:00.000-04:002006-04-03T06:54:00.000-04:00Awesome post, Joel.

Unfortunately, I have. In fact, while what I described is in no way representative of the best of Republican views, I have not embellished at all! Each of the sentiments listed I have personally heard out of the mouth of a so-called "conservative." For that matter, same thing with the democrats.<BR/><BR/>Paramendra.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13856253694243784280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11949850.post-1143430503232595832006-03-26T22:35:00.000-05:002006-03-26T22:35:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
