4. Make air travel so miserable that even suicidal hijackers won't want to travel by plane.

How can air travel get more miserable than it is already? Last time I was on a plane was a year ago. Round trip to Las Vegas(Grand Canyon was the destination) and I believe I'd rather drive the next time!

How about instead of going to Las Vegas(Grand Canyon destination), your flight goes right into a skyscraper(hell will be the destination). Isn't that more miserable than it is already!

6. Screw up the economy so bad that impoverished wackos will no longer see the US as a land of rich indulgence.

I don't make the rules! You're just dreaming if you think you can get into Heaven without accepting Jesus Christ as your Savior! I pity your soul!

How can i accept someone as my Savior if he couldn't save him self! How can i accept someone who 'sacrificed' him self for a sin he didn't commit! how can i accept him as a lord when he can't forgive/punish the original sinful! how can i accept him as a lord when he dies as a human!

So, what should we do if we're so poor? Send our paychecks to Iraq? But according to you, we aren't. You'd be surprised how much we're getting done. You don't like it? Then go over there and do it yourself, if you think you can do a better job.

As for everybody owning a gun, what are we supposed to do? We can't regulate everything. Don't you think that there's the off chance that somebody's going to find one of the millions of weapons the Russians sent over there? Things take time. We have instant coffee, instant entertainment, and now, instant war.

And hijacking. Airplanes are pretty fancy to people who own camels instead of cars. Plus, it's their fault anyway. Maybe airlines would be able to have better airplanes if Arabs didn't insist on boycotting the "Great Satan."

And there's the inevitable job situation. It's actually improved since Bush took office, and there are more jobs. But you're right about one thing. People have more free time. Now that they aren't sending 60% of their money to the government.

Oh, and about the land of indulgence comment: we can't get any worse than them. They may have oil, but they have to have cars to use it, and they only place they're going to get them is from us or Japan.

And there's the mandatory, "The U.S. industry is taking over foreign nations!" remark. Yeah, that must have been amusing when people fist thought it up around the time of WWI.

And a stab at GM. I suppose you like your food with extra cockroaches.

And more economic, "India's overtaking us!" stuff. Well, twenty years ago, it was Japan overtaking us. What now? Well, their economy was stagnant for ten years, pretty much like the flow of new ideas into the liberal party. Five years ago, it was the Euro. Nobody's going to overtake us. As soon as India doesn't become a golbal empire, some other nation will be bestowed the crown of "nation that's gonna overtake the U.S." Will it be China? Proabably. Yeah, they're Communist. But people were once predicting the collapse of the U.S. and Soviet economic dominance. One look at Russia today should give you an idea of why such predictions of doom are stupid and unfounded.

You're forgetting something fanoose. It was His mission to come here and die for all mankind. Those who reject Him put themselves in grave danger of Eternal banishment from the Kingdom of Heaven. There are many members here that will argue that He is not the Savior of mankind. That those who believe is just wasting their time.

He put Himself on the cross to die for me and you. Not only that, He died for the whole world's sin's. If I were the only person to ever to commit any sin, then He would have died for me, just so I wouldn't be lost forever.

Many will reject this as ridiculous. I say it's not. Belief in Him, gives me hope that He'll come back someday and the world will be without sin for 1000 years. See, He died and He was resurrected and He ascended unto the Father in Heaven, where He awaits the day, when He'll return.
