If you follow Christ’s teachings then you must acknowledge that the sole domain for sex is the…Read More married man and woman. One of the problems in our society is the acceptance of (or participation in) a behavior simply because we find out that someone we like participates in that behavior. Whether it is a teenager who thinks doing illegal drugs is OK because their best friend does it, or those who now accept homosexuality because they have discovered a family member or friend is homosexual. One can still love the other person without embracing the particular activity. As St. Augustine wrote in the "City of God" - "the character of human will is important...since no one is evil by nature, but whoever is evil is evil by vice, whoever lives according to God should hold a perfect hatred for evil men. He should not hate the man because of his vice, or love the vice because of the man."

The reason that they call you bigots is because you are bigots. Look the word up in the dictionary.

A better question would be, why do theKSU police department need M-60 machine guns? And have the…Read More KSU police department received training the the proper methodology for tactical use of a crew served weapon? An M-60 machine gun is not a sniper weapon; it is designed for use against troops, plural, in the open field. But what the heck ...let's go ahead and issue them a flame thrower and a couple dozen hand grenades as well!

In 1997, when the number "42" was universally retired, 13 active players were wearing the…Read More number and were allowed to keep using it until they left baseball. Mariano Rivera, the consummate closer for the NY Yankees, is the last player in Major League Baseball wearing Jackie Robinson’s No. 42.
He will retire at the end of this season...and Robinson's number will also be retired.

No, The banks should not loan money to people that have lesser credit. Stick to your 700 credit…Read More score. If you don't (banks) it will all come back to bite you in the a--. You will be blamed for another crash and you will most likely face charges etc. this time. They could shut down the banks that make these loans, lose your jobs,etc. It could be a lot worse the second time around. There is nothing wrong with renting a house. People can make it a home until they can afford to buy without such a struggle. Besides jobs are not secure for anyone right now. As for the banks, it's too much of a risk. Owning a home is not what gets the economy going anyway, it's JOBS that get the economy going, Top and foremost!!

I was highly involved in the Real Estate Business during the rise & crash of our Market. I…Read More highly suspected during that time period that we would see enormous filings of Foreclosures & Bankruptcies. Unfortunately I didn't read the writing on the wall as clearly as I should have and held onto assets that I should have cashed out of.
We can't keep doing the same thing and expecting different results. Giving away homes & loans to buyers with nothing invested on their end will not be a long term productive process.
Habitat for Humanity applies a very good system to buyers that don't have good credit or money to invest. They set up very strict guidelines and the buyer actually invest time & effort in the building of their homes. Their interest charge is minimal if any at all but they must follow the rules set up. And these are truly "Starter Homes" not something more expensive than they can afford.
That's what needs to be promoted and not us as tax payers having to pull everyone else up without any investment on their side of the equation.
Mark Obrien April 14, 2013 at 05:41 pm
No! Are you kidding me? Hasn't this nightmare of an economy been bad enough to say the least to…Read More start over doing something that failed totally before?
People bought homes without any hard money invested on their own. All they had to do was go to some "class" for first time buyers and they were given money to buy a house. Did they invest anything but their monthly payments? No. So when they lost their job or couldn't pay what they agreed to what did they do? They walked away. Same thing would happen again.
And also people refinanced homes because prices were skyrocketing. They took out money and bought other things and sometimes other properties. Only to later not be able to sell them later because of what happened in this market. Prices dropped dramatically. We saw homes valued in the 100's of thousands of dollars only to be sold sometimes below $100,000 a few years later. Who made out like bandits after that???? The folks that had cash to go and buy these steals will be able to make lots of cash that the Banks were paid by the Govt to sell. Who i turn was paid for by the Tax Payers.
So, my answer is a big fat No.
I can only hope & pray that somewhere along the way we will get some Common Sense in our thinking.

NO!!!! Are you kidding me? The Federal Government already collects more money than they need to.…Read More They need to go through each department and agency and start cutting out programs that are not needed or duplicated. Then they need to cut the elected officials budgets, have them live with less.
IMF is wanting the US to donate more money to their cause so they can give it away to other countries. Doesn't the US give enough money to most of these other countries anyway? And what do we get from it for the most part? Nothing.
