How Much Do You Have to Hate Someone Not to Proselytize?

Francis Schaeffer on the Origins of Relativism in the Church

Words to Remember

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

Roger Simon on Sarah Palin

Go ahead. Read it. Here's a snippet:

Sarah Palin has something more than intellect. She has the ability to understand, connect with and energize her party.


And considering her likely opposition — Romney, Gingrich, Tim Pawlenty, Bobby Jindal, Mike Huckabee or Haley Barbour — tell me she has no chance. Go ahead and tell me. It’s enough to make one snicker.
Mr. Simon is right. Despite the potential for great gains in the next two elections, the alleged Republican Party elites are, by and large, not people that I think have real potential for greatness.

    I’m not sure that she could beat Obama though. She appeals to a lot of people but she also repels a lot of people too. I’m not sure that I would even both to vote if the choice was between Obama and Palin. If somehow Gingrich gets the nomination then I would probably vote for Obama, not because I am happy with him but I cannot stand Newt.
