I am a Right Winger Conservative Republican, but only because I believe in the constitution. The Freedom of Speech, Freedom of the Press and Freedom of Religion, then I Support the 2nd Amendment, to carry firearms by law abiding citizens. I also believe in "not quartering of soldiers in my home during peacetime" 4th Amendment- Right of search and Seizure without a proper warrant stating specific evidence of a specific crime, the 5th Amendment to invoke Self incrimination. You get the idea? Not every conservative is a "nutter" as you so boldly put it. I believe in conserving family and values. Whether children have 2 Moms or 2 Dads, even through marriage- that's a family. There are too many children in foster homes waiting for a family. People don't agree with me I know this to be true. You have probably seen for yourself that a true Christian does not see color, race or gender as a boundary for a family. It takes a village to raise a child. This movie is not anti-witch. It actually shows how stupid some people in specific areas of this nation that I so much love can be so filled with hate and stupidity. SPOILER- Two girls invoke the protection of Jesus because the main character is just sitting in her seat and spoke out loud.--- I don't quite remember the scene, but the type of Holy roller'ing going on does exist in this world. If people like that spent half that amount of energy praying for other people's health as much as they pray for their own safety, the whole world would be a lot better off. Yes, it seems the bigger the church the "Holier than Thou" the congregation becomes and people lose focus of why they built Gods House in the first place. There is so much faith and prayers for the sinners people think their neighbors have on their souls. People should stop throwing stones at them. They should just pray for them after they have left their presence. I have come across people that do not want to be helped or prayed for. So, I have silently walked away and prayed for them later. We shouldn't pray for them to their face if they do not want it. We should respect people's wishes. People are uncomfortable. Some people may experience guilt when a preacher's wife who offered to pray for them, they send away, may give them guilty pangs. Talking to God or any god of their choice is their choice. Not mine or anyone else's to choose for them. People say Jesus said to spread the word of God. He also said be tolerant and treat my neighbor and my brother as I want to be treated. I don't want someone else's religion shoved in my face. Why would I do that to someone else??? I'll just plant that option to think about my faith for them. I'll let them think it over. That's my motto. They'll know what to do when their time comes. Some people never know their true selves until their last breath. It's not my place to render judgment. So, I support gays and lesbians. Especially in their pursuit of building families. Just as heterosexual males and females, I do not condone this sleeping around thing though. But, if people want to do it. then they'll do it. But, that is how disease is spread and disease costs money. Someone has to pay for the insurance on that shot of Penicillin in the butt!! Then there are things that AJAX won't take off neither will any anti-virals or anti-biotics. Some things only treat the symptoms, not cure the disease. Besides, knowing about "Old Time" religions, you can learn a lot about herbs and spices. The original Apothecaries you know. Then they branched off and became pharmacists, nurses and doctors. I know long... too much info. There's a lot we can learn from each other. So, I recommend this movie as a love story that makes bounderies, but if you want love you have to have courage to go beyond them. even if you think you are saving someone from hurting themselves in the long run by letting them go under false pretenses, you should let someone go because it was their choice to leave, not because you think it's the right thing to do. things have a way of working out if they are meant to. If they don't, it's because we missed a step or a clue. We just get up, dust ourselves off and start over. It's called life.
Merry we meet, merry we part and merry we meet again and again and again.
