I agree. We certainly have the brains. We absolutely need to
address
the
global implications of China's plants. Doing something by ourselves
(talking greenhouse gases) isn't the ultimate solution. It needs to
be
a
global effort. We have (and will have more) influence around the
world.
We need to use our influence and power for good.


Our "power" is diminishing rapidly. The country is broke and nearly
broken. The first thing we need to do is to repeal the all of the
entitlements at the federal level and tell those who receive them
that
they are going to have to take on for the team again.


Yeah, screw the poor created by the mis-notion of free market
capitalism.
What would Jesus do?

Are you into mocking Christianity like so many of the other liberals
here?


Why would you think I'm mocking something that I grew up with and still
hold
dear? You know nothing about me. I think you're grasping at straws. How
dare
you question my faith.

At last, you realized it was a question. Why be so defensive?

You're questioning my faith and it's none of your business. Why are you
being such a jerk?


Answer my question. What would Jesus do... support free market
capitalism
that was and is responsible for disenfranchising the poor or would He
support the poor?

No. I'll not try to guess what Jesus would do.

Basically, you refuse to answer the question. I'll answer for you... He
would take the side of the poor not the corporations. Feel free to
disagree.

I refuse to enter a religious discussion with you.


This is obvious. Now the question is (not really a question) why.

Why what?
