American Government

The problem with America is that if we didn't have half the freedoms we have, half the things we do as Catholics would be illegal... perhaps a good deal of us would be martyrs, then. Now, if we had good leaders, then we wouldn't need quite so many freedoms because we'd have good/better laws. [/quote]
Agreed to a certian extent one can have too much freedom, such as to speak out against the Laws of God. But if you also wanna get technically about it theres really nothing free about Life. Christ, paid to Ultimate price for our freedom against the Devil, Sin, and the World. Not even that was free.

Sorry I got off topic there alittle bit, but I do think America needs some restrictions and such, but I dont believe the Government sould place restrictions on everything. I do believe our Government could lean more towards the Good or Evil side, depending on who we elect for our government officials.

I agree with you. I was just... thinking somewhat theoretically, and I tend to have a hard time getting my thoughts down clearly when I do that. But it seems like you've gotten my point, so I guess it wasn't too bad.



I confuse myself.
