Have you watched "Paris je t'aime?"
Well, my brain works like that movie. Short, random stories popping in and out of the small screen in my head. :) I imagine many short trains instead of one long train of thought.
Anyway... here's my random thought of the day...
You know when people say "what would Jesus do?" Well... in the case of Election '08, what would Jesus do? Who would He vote for? A friend said to me that we'll never have a candidate that God would endorse. Because this candidate won't even get past the primary. So that got me thinking... I want to see changes in our government. And I see change embodied in one candidate. I think you know who I'm talking about. :) But he's not necessarily someone Jesus would vote for. I mean, he's stirred controversy when he (according to some conservatives) "distorted the Bible." (Please see it for yourself and form your own opinion on this. Read it: http://santitafarella.wordpress.com/2008/06/25/the-text-of-barack-obamas-speech-on-religion-june-25-08/). He also has very pro-choice records on abortion and has opposed a constitutional ban on gay marriages. But it's not like the other candidate is any better. I swear, it's almost like we just have to choose the "lesser evil" or something.
Anyway, so really, what would Jesus do? Don't tell me this... that's He'll do the right thing. That's still vague, isn't it? What is the right thing?
Well, I'll close with this. DO YOUR RESEARCH. BE WELL-INFORMED. GO OUT AND VOTE. STAND FOR WHAT IS RIGHT AND WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN. With our vote, we help form the path our country will take in the next four years. Wouldn't you want to be part of that?
