Brian1971: imo for several century's politics and religion has killed more people then any disease. To this day both breed hate and violence. I dont think in the 21st century with our growing technical era how one can blame it on technology. People have been ignorant many years not just since we grown technically. Actually more people today hear your message. Years back your neighbors were the only ones you feuded with. Sadly, imo things will just get worse but as a christian you have the return of Jesus to look forward too. For non believers who believe in science, they too are critisized by christians. I think god fearing people should be the last folks to complain about the atheists in their life and pray for them and love them just as jesus himself would have done. I think to many Americans complain about the system that they actually abuse themselves, and then collect funds from the honest tax paying citizens.
universe: Ok I wasn't focused on just religion and Christianity. Go back and look at the whole message. However as a Christian I do have many friends who do not go along with my Christian views and it has not gotten in the way of our friendships. I do not mandate they think like me and do love those who oppose my views. However the basis for my original message was the fact you cannot support anything or there are people who will attack you and label you as some bigot or other negative connotation. People should be free to express themselves without someone or group trying to automatically give you a negative label or try to silence you if they do not agree with you and that goes for everyone. In the United States we have freedom of speech and religion, etc. However sadly there are those factions who try to silence those who they disagree with and not allow for freedom of expression. I do agree that there are many abuses of the system. It hurts people who desperately need the help as there is less funding to go to those individuals. My wife and I are those who could use the extra assistance. I live off a fixed disability income of less than $1000 a month and my wife brings home about 1200 a month. We barely make it. If any emergencies arise we have to sacrifice something we need to cover it. We are denied medical assistance from Medicaid, though I was able to get my medicare premiums covered. We try apply for food stamps and they either deny us or the last time we were accepted we got 16 dollars a month. What can one buy on that for 2 people? So yes the system is broken and the next president needs to reform it and get rid of the fraud and make those who have abused the system start paying the system back.
