Dump a man of God? Are you kidding me?

Quote From: saemae

I'm a Christian and very proud of the fact.  That's why it ruffles my feathers when a lazy, irresponsible loser like this guy claims "God's will" so he doesn't have to work!  Come on!  God commands you to work to support your family!  What Bible are you reading?  This guy's just mad because God's REAL will might actually lead him to an honest day's work instead of a day of feeding tropical fishes!  A bit of advice for ya, DAD!  Get off your duff and get to work like a real Christian man would do for his family.  And stop using God as an excuse for your laziness!

 

Mom, if I were you, I'd start listening for the still small voice that is telling you to dump this bum.

Dump this man because he is a dreamer whose dreams didn't come out the way he had hoped...that makes him a bum.  Wow.

 

Whatever, you see it one way and I see it another.

 

Do I agree that he should be a working a full time job for another that will pay him a steady income until he gets back on his feet and can bring his dreams into reality...by all means yes!

 

Did you not catch that he is a doing exactly that?

 

He has 4 or 5 applications out there and is in the process of waiting for responses...

 

He like the average American today is facing the same job market results...our stock market has been unstable since the report in January of the number of Americans that are without work.  Not because they are lazy, yet because our Government during the Clinton-Gore fiasco...put together NAPTA...that gave large tax incentives and subsidies to large companies that would re-locate to other countries...

 

I was told the other day by a Republican party basher that former president Bush first had the idea and Clinton-Gore put it on the ballot for the American people telling them how wonderful and sound it was...

 

I knew because I can walk, talk and chew gum at the same time...that the American people would eventually suffer the outcome of big businesses re-locating to other countries and I don't have a college degree behind me...

 

I have met many people with college degrees that have to work more than one job to keep ahead of the wolves at the door.  So a college degree in today's world is not necessarily a carte blanc card to success...we are in troubling times people...

 

This man was not allowed to speak freely his mind about his acrylic invention company that grossed over a million dollars.  Gross is a random figure for what he made and what he got to keep after the expenses are two different commodities...

 

I wished that he could have taken his invention to the next step for it sounded from the brief description of it...that a large exercise company found his invention useful...did this large corporation, who do him...because he lives a life of trust, faith and belief...would he have been the first to ever get taken down by the large guy in business, just because they had all the capital and attorneys behind them?

 

No, I for one am another dreamer that prays more than complains...I am one that believes that "vengeance is mine saith the Lord."

 

All please remember one valuable thing here with this show and all other shows that are geared towards making changes in our land...one hour, is not enough time in which to adequately sum up any one's life style choices...

 

Was this guy's father a dreamer and an inventor as well?  Do children not copy the perceptions and habits of their parents?

 

Those are my thoughts, I am sure that I am not done posting...for this subject is a touching my heart more than it did when it aired...just by the responses I am a reading...so far.

 

We Are All Blessed

Love, Light and Peace

Tonie

So you're calling him names, and encouraging his wife to divorce him?

Ummmm, what Bible are YOU reading?
