I guess the bottom line Pastor Larry is that you need to exercise your mind by asking questions over and over again that have been given satisfactory answers to or you just enjoy trolling a lot.
I have not seen any satisfactory answers given to this question. Until I read a few posts here today, I had never really given it much thought. I have not previously read these Ron Paul for president threads, and I don't think about him all that much. But I wondered about the answer to the question.
My mind gets plenty of exercise, mostly in theology and ancient languages, not so much in politics.
If you are offended by someone who doesn't know something and takes the time to ask about it, then I suppose you are the one with the problem. As for me, when I don't know something I want to know, I ask. You still, for all your words, haven't given a very satisfactory answer, but perhaps that may be because you don't actually have one, but do have a need to defend Ron Paul. I don't know.
If Ron Paul says that America needs to take some of the responsibility for the way the world views us and feeds the negative views that people have of America, I actually agree with him. That doesn't justify their violent responses, and it may well be that America's intentions and actions in certain places are worth the cost, but I think we should acknowledge that these guys did not attack America out of a vacuum.
In other words, I think I tend to agree with Ron Paul on this particular issue.
