I understand why you say this, but this denies the Christian solution. Or maybe "Christ's solution" might be more accurate. Ps, this is just exactly what they told Gandhi. Before he changed the country.

I would like to change the country.

It seems to me that people need to stand up a bit more for what they believe in. I have been feeling some faith rising up me me that I haven't felt in a long time.

This sounds like a political perspective. Which is great, and I probably agree with it. But just curious how this is a Christian/Faith issue?

You'll have to ask bbyrd.

However, I would say this is an issue that affects Christians because there are Christians who do not believe in immunizations. I think this is an issue of civil liberty and freedom. It is an American issue, really. And I think it takes faith to stand up for what you believe in when it goes against the grain. In that way, it is a faith issue. But it is an issue that affect all people not just Christians.

Ah, no, not being facetious...we are proscribed from
violence against those who would perpetrate evil
against us; therefore passive resistance is all that is left.

The only way to affect change is to make
"it will never happen" happen. Gandhi did it,
and we can do it, too.

"I do not care what you are going to do;
I am not going to do that."
You will have
confident assurance of your daily bread,
and let me tell you--I just saw a bale of
hay for $27...a word to the wise.

Word.
"All people" will run to get behind "Christians" who are leading, and not talking. My advice would be "Don't even look behind you to see if anyone is following."
