Welcome

This is my first post, on my new blog. I plan for this to be a place where we can discuss, a vast array of subjects. Things will be discussed purely from a relevance perspective. Everything said here will strictly be someones opinion. Of course we're going to deal with facts. Not letting our biases cloud our reasoning. Wherever the issue happens to be. Both locally and nationally, worldwide or however they arise. This blog is open to all opinions, regardless of race, age or gender. I won't discourage other religions from posting here, but I am a devout Christian. Expect my opinions to be spiritually influenced,uncompromising in my faith. My convictions should be evident, and probably will be. In the things I'm going to say. Those in opposition to my beliefs, will probably find this blog interesting. All beliefs are welcome here, but Christianity rules!!!I do have my personal political leanings, but they aren't etched in stone. I don't call myself a hardcore this or that. Right wing Republican or leftist Democrat. Being Independant, doesn't pose a serious challenge to the dominant parties either. You can make a personal statement, but that's about all you're doing. In the grand scheme of things. I do my best to effectively use the one voice I have, when I go into the voting booth. I'm more concerned with what's right, than allegiance to a particular political party. I focus on the ability to rationalize things from a common point of view. I think we as a community have been captured by our sense of entitlement. Whoever makes the most campaign promises, that benefit us personally. Hug and shake hands with the most parishoners, and kisses the most babies. Is most likely the politician, to get our vote. Not to mention voter loyalty, and who the prominent ministers endorse. Everybody wants the easy way out. We can depend on that. The first law of man is " self preservation". What works well for some, works against others. That's the nature of politics. Some will be happy, but some will not. Having gotten that out of the way. We plan to uncover some of those hidden truths here. We welcome all opinions here with a open heart, an open mind. We don't have thin skin here. We call it down the middle.
