Wow….H/T to The Other McCain, when I read the latest blog post, I seriously had to check this group out! Upon visiting the 1Flesh webpage, I thought ok, organic sex, I can dig it, I guess. Even though I seemed to get the premise, and admire the notion to wait until after marriage, I wasn’t [...]

I had a very good libertarian friend post this article on my Facebook wall: Does God want Ron Paul to be President? Oy…I found this article disturbing for several reasons, but the most important of which being the judgement involved. First of all, let me say I’ve come to really love and truly value my [...]
