Well, I guess this is how you justify discounting your values. You know the man is lying to you but you can always just say everyone else is a liar too. Let's not forget, Obama said you could keep your doctor, so he was just as bad, AMIRITE?
EVERY politician running for office that stands at a podium with a microphone in hand and makes promises to their audience is a liar. Whether they are a presidential nominee or not makes no difference. Don't agree with me? Name me one that hasn't?
It has nothing to do with justifying anything.
It's what I believe. Chances are, your belief system is different.
I believe in the doctrine of original sin.
I believe man is born with a sinful nature.
That's why the bible says,
"10 As it is written,
There is none righteous, no, not one:
11 There is none that understandeth,
there is none that seeketh after God.
12 They are all gone out of the way,
they are together become unprofitable;
there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
13 Their throat is an open sepulchre;
with their tongues they have used deceit;
the poison of asps is under their lips:
14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
15 Their feet are swift to shed blood:
16 Destruction and misery are in their ways:
17 And the way of peace have they not known:
18 There is no fear of God before their eyes."
Your turn.
