Sorry. But I know many refugees from Venezuela whose families owned thriving, job creating businesses. Thanks to Chavez, those businesses are no more.

What about freedom of speech? Do you think it is right that China and Venezuela to snuff out free speech?

What scripture do you cite for God wanting secular governments to do the work of the church?

BTW, I still think you are a parody.

Yes I wonder how the socialists would feel if they had their land taken and businesses absorbed and nationalized...how is that a free market solution?

Re: Can a true Christiam embrace Che Guevarra ?

Dedicated Mind, how about this for a compromise? Why don't we simply follow the Constitution? Why don't we only allow the Federal Government to perform those 20 or so, few and defined powers delegated to it by the States, and allow the States to do as they see fit on the rest? That way, any State that wanted to could adopt these "progressive " policies that you condone, while citizen's of other States could adopt a more libertarian form of society if they wished. No specific philosophy or ideology should be forced on all the States from the top down, wouldn't you agree?
