When Jesus walked this earth, He came to tell the way of salvation. He didn't take up anyones cause except His Father's. It is unfair to blame the church for the so-called "AIDS." The use of needles and drugs to enhance the sexual high of those involved in homosexuality brought on the breakdown of their immune systems and the result was AIDS. To blame the church and Christians for the behavior of gay people is quite unfair. This is especially true when the Christian is following the directive of Jesus Christ go preach and share the gospel. It isn't the Christians fault that the gospel is rejected and Christian demonized. Why do people always use the name of Jesus and through His great name before the face of Christians when society rejects the message behind that name?

torture in 1940's: In WWll, the Japanese captured thousands of American soldiers. These soldiers experienced many of the following: -dismbowelment (look it up!) -broken bones -they were EXPERIMENTED on with high levels of radiation, most dying -working limbs were cut off without anesthetic -they were starved, many to death torture according to the left in the 2000's: -waterboarding a handful of the worst terrorists the world has to offer -loud unlimited Barry Manilow music -Rap music (for me anyway!) -cold, not life threatening, surroundings with few clothes on -you get teh idea Now that we have properly defined the "torture" Pitts is referring to, we can begin to understand the figures he provides. Bottom line, Pitts and the maniac press and left have their panties in a wad over the waterboarding of a handful of the worst terrorists (not "man-caused-disaster-people). Like it or not, the waterboarding technique DID work and prevented further terroristic attacks (man-caused-disasters.....it just sounds to hilarious and stupid not to use!) and thousands of lives were saved. I doubt many AMericans know one of the terrorist attacks/man-caused disasters prevented was an attack on LosAngeles. Considering the strong family values carried by Christain and Jewish AMericans, it is not surprising they would support the waterboarding of a couple terrorists to save thousands of innocent American lives. Conversely, one has to wonder why non-christians/jews would seem to be indifferent to protecting innocent lives. Can one conclude many on the left etc do not care as much for the safety and well being of their famiy members, neighbors and countrymen? I think so.

You're worried about torture when the most awful thing in this country right now is abortion? You must not understand, radical Islamic terrorists hate YOU. They hate Jews, they hate Christians, and they would blow you personally to bits in a second. You're naive. How about you start focusing on those who really are innocently slaughtered - the unborn. And if you are Pro-Choice, God is not on your side and the blood of THOSE INNOCENT ONES will be on your hands. It isn't a woman's choice - it was God's and He chose to give life.
