I am a Conservative because I agree with a lot of Conservative idealogies.\n\nI believe in God\n\nI believe in Jesus as my Savior.\n\nI support the Military\n\nI believe in the Right to Keep and Bear Arms\n\nI support the Death Penalty for the crimes of Murder, Rape, Molestation, and Treason\n\nI oppose Abortion except for Threat to a Mother's Life.\n\nI believe in the right to pray to whoever you wanna pray to, if ya don't wanna pray that is fine with me but don't deny the right to those who wish to pray.\n\nI believe that those who are able to work Full Time should be working a job instead of being on Welfare (only Widows, War Veterans and Disabled persons should be allowed to get Money from the Government, and a good amount of our injured War eterans would be getting the Money due to them for their service if it weren't for Lazy people who can work being on Welfare instead of working).\n\nLiberal use to have a different meaning that it does today, for instance there are soem Viewpoints I hold that would have deemed me Liberal in Lincoln's time (Lincoln was Liberal according to the standards of hsi time but according to today's standards he was pretty Conservative).\n\nMuslim Clerics would deem me Liberal because I am opposed to forcing a Woman to wear a Veil (I have no problem with the Veils themselves but im against forcing a Woman to wear it).

Anything that you feel strongly about and are well educated on. Topics could be ..... War in Iraq, abortion, national health care, removing or keeping the trade embargo against Cuba, seperation of church and state, and many others. Keep in mind that your opinion will likely be at odds with at the very least a few. Also make sure and research what points people will use to argue against your position, but mostly try and pick something you feel strongly about and prepare yourself.

I'll share with you my beliefs, but "warning": to most, they may be "controversial" or even "blasphemous".  I consider myself to be a highly spiritual person, but I do not believe in "organized religion" and churches.  In fact, I believe that the more involved one is in a particular religious sect, the further away from Our Creator they become. Why? Because I believe that our relationship to our Creator and to other people- our spiritual relationships, start from within, as an important "question", looking for an "answer".  Too many relgions (all!) seem to "provide" ALL the "answers", but, each "answer" to the same question is different, depending on who you "listen to".  Why not listen to your heart, when it comes to spiritual questions.  I believe that Our Creator lives inside of us all, and speaks to us all, through our emotions, our feelings, our spirits.  And I believe that it is this spirit within that IS part of God, as we, I do believe, ARE God's "children" and thus we are connected to "Him", 24 hours a day, seven days a week, wherever we are, and under any circumstance.  We don't need a "church" to worship in, just a moment of peace and quiet, to "tap into" (and remember!) that "connection" that is always there for us.  They say that it is our "emotions" that make us "different" from other animals- and when it comes to "love", I believe this is true. Where does "love"  originate- but inside of us, it "connects" us- it "lifts us up"- and inside us all, there lies an unlimited source- that gives us our spirituality. Don't need a church for that, or a religion to teach us this.  In fact, most religions do not accept beliefs that differ from their own, a concept that is, in my book (and God's!) "anti-Christian" and anti-spiritual. The path of spiritality differs for every person, and I believe that if they are "looking" for the "way" (on their own, one on One with our Creator)- they will find it, and perhaps "faster", WITHOUT a church's interference.\n\n                                            -TERA\n                                          (time4u420@yahoo)

I enjoy reading about religion... it's always interesting and enlightening to explore differing perspectives and opinions, even when they differ from my own. I also think it's great that people can give homework help and so forth. I think it's a pretty neat forum.

My views ar based on logic and the data that I can find. If I discover new data that contradicts a view I've had, then I change my view. If I find a mistake, then I change my view.\n\nMany do not, and continue to ardently support what they believe in even if all the data show that the belief is wrong. This is the main reason why I feel belief is a dangerous thing to have.\n\nWhen you use belief as a basis for judgement, it doesn't matter if your belief is true or not. It makes it "right". From there, anything goes. For an example, see terrorists and Iraq.\n\nThe key here should be that people should use critical thinking skills to formulate a logical conclusion based on available facts.\n\nBut it's just too easy to use belief and emotion.\n\n~X~

I believe in both but, when we analyze our lives in relationship with the universe there is still MUCH we don't know and understand. So, looking at in from a non-religious and non-scholarly point-of-view; trying to make sense of it which you believe...doesn't much make sense. So pick one, both, or neither and you'll be RIGHT!!!

A person can absolutely stand with what they believe, that is depending on what their belief is based on.\n\nIf your belief is based on something unfounded, it will not take much to unsettle that belief.  If a person's belief is well founded, they have confidence that no matter what, they will be better off sticking with their beliefs.\n\nMy beliefs are based on the Bible, and I feel confident that they are well founded.  Therefore, any attempts to unsettle them will have to be not only logical, but supported biblically as well seeing that is the source of my foundation.\n\nSome whose beliefs are solely based on the commons ideals of the time will be shaken quite often because the ideals of the times change constantly without reason or warning.  Some who claim to go against the grain and not follow mainstream beliefs, but are always contrary to them are inadvertantly driven by them as well without even being aware of it.  Their desire to be contrary to public opinion is so strong that regardless of whether mainstream is right or not they are opposite no matter how outrageous it may seem to everyone else.  This then puts them in a position where they really are unsure of the future because they must wait for the mainstream to make a stand before they themselves can take a stand against it.  The mainstream view cannot statistically be wrong 100% of the time.\n\nEither way, a person's belief system can only be as strong as its foundation.

Though I hesitate to call myself feminist (mostly due to an internal debate over whether a man can truly be a feminist); I do try to uphold some of the beliefs of both the early suffragette movement, and the change in social mores in the 1960s and 1970s. That is, gender (and racial though that is a different topic) equality in matters of politics, socio-economics, and spiritaulity.\n\nAs for reconciling attitudes between my own beliefs and those of the patriarchal religions; quite frankly, I couldn't. Experience with my extended family gave me an extremely biased view of leadership dynamics. Due to my mother's family, I began to tie the presence of strong female influence, leadership and direction to long-term stability and strong ties within a family. This idea was reinforced over the course of three generations: my mother, my mother's mother, my maternal grandmother's mother and sisters, as well as my maternal grandfather's mother and sister all presented strong female role models and true partnerships with their husband. It is interesting to note that while a good number of my maternal great-aunts and great-uncles (sisters/brothers of grandparents) do affiliate with the (Roman Catholic or other Christian) church, the majority are FWEC Christians.\nMy father's family, on the other hand, had a strong paternal influence within the household; or rather, the influence of my paternal grandmother was purposefully muted due to prevailing influence and ideals of the Catholic Church during her childhood. Their family dynamic, in the past twenty years, has been punctuated by arguments, divorce, and what can only be described as very poor judgement.\n\nI never truly had to reconcile my own learned beliefs with those of the church for two main reasons: first, I was not raised in the church. I sought the church on my own around as a pre-teen and chose the Congregational Church specifically because of it's stand on female clergy (allowed).

One religion hmmm this is intresting, i guess that i would pick commandments that focused on helping others and promoting a society that attempts to help others, Christanity has some good guidelines in that department, also eastern religions focus on an idividuals place in the world definitly useful. Just stay away from the dietary laws... i like food in general.

Christianity, Buddhism, Muslim, Jewish, Wicca, Paganism, Hinduism, Scientology, Mormonism, I continually study religion, it is one of my great passions. You can't have a good conversation on religion unless you know what the person you are talking to is talking about.

Being a Christian relates to your personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ.  It has nothing to do with your political affiliation.

It depends on your beliefs.

First, I look for someone who has similar views.  My vote is first and foremost electing someone to represent me.  Then, honesty, integrity, loayalty, wisdom and the ability to stand up for what they believe in.
