   I don't know what sinful things she's done, other than being a media   
   personality itself. And that's the only reason why I am skeptical of her   
   sincerity. I don't know what it's like to be a celebrity, but I sense that   
   they sometimes fake their values.

   That particular family has good values. I forgive people who hurt me too, but   
   I do it for my own good because it's not healthy to hold grudges or to dwell   
   on the past too much.

   Charlie was only right 99.99% of the time. Nobody can be right all the time.   
      
    IJ> I think the western civilization, based on Christian Foundations, is the   
    IJ> reason why the west was so successful.   
      
   Good point. Having rules, keeping values, knowing right from wrong, are all   
   productive qualities.   
      
    IJ> Some foul mouth rapper with a WAP wants to prioritize God in her life.    
    IJ> She wants to speak out against what the left is doing to current body   
    IJ> politics.  She wants to speak out about global issues like the Massacre   
    IJ> of Christians in Africa...    
      
   I don't get it. What's a WAP? Around here it's a nickname for Italians (and   
   for suspected Italians.)   
      
    IJ> As a Group, regardless of your religious position we need to welcome

    IJ> come.   
      
   I'm sure they're missing some opportunities when they do that. There are   
   better ways for them to make an argument, but they often choose baseless   
   bashing.   
      
    IJ> I heard her say... She wants to put God in her life.  I heard her say   
    IJ> she was sick of being silenced  and I heard her say she didn't like the   
    IJ> atrocities against Christians in Africa.   
      
   I heard that conversation too, but she's kinda all over the place with those   
   words. She should tell us who was trying to silence her and how, and what   
   she's doing different now to connect better with God.
