PART TWO OF THE MAVERICK BLACK MAN

The members of Verily Prime, of which there are two, have never responded to any of the criticisms to their blogs, but we feel the need to do so now because of the consternation and hits that were received for the blog titled “The Maverick Black Man.” Incidentally, lest you think that our family is simpatico with the members of Verily Prime’s take on the given issues, you will be wrong. My father is an ardent, rabid supporter of President Obama and vigorously voices his criticism on our take on issues he takes umbrage to-only, he does so intellectually, as opposed to the ad hominem attacks endemic of the blogosphere. For those who sought to tutor and admonish us about the separation of church and state, a venerable check and balance, nestled in our First Amendment, need not do so. One of the few subjects this member and author of this blog excelled at when attended law school was Constitutional Law, which means that I am intimately familiar with Lemon, the seminal case president on freedom of speech and separation of church and state. No founding father’s words nor no charismatic president, republican or democrat, black or white, can cause the members of Verily Prime to replace the primacy they place on scripture. Case in point, you cannot pay us enough to be an advocate for Planned Parenthood because we see abortion as the most heinous act humans can partake in, notwithstanding the few tenable exceptions. So again, if President Obama, via his economic policy, provided the proverbial cornucopia for us-I still wouldn’t vote for him due to his stance on abortion. Our brand of traditional Christianity isn’t biased only against Democrats who support abortion or homosexual marriage; it is against those Republicans who are pro choice too. From our vistas, we can see that members of Verily Prime will not be voting in the near future because there are pundits who have said that the Republican Party need to change with the times and embrace the secular tenets that are in vogue like gay marriage and no limits on abortion rights, if it wants to take back the White House. When I served in the Army, I was wiling and still am, to make the ultimate sacrifice because of what this country stood for, providing that it didn’t conflict with my religious beliefs. I am more willing to die for Jesus and so I try to live my life the way that would give me the benisons of the afterlife-simply because forever is a long time--even if you disagree with my interpretation on how to get there…For now, these Jesus freaks are signing off….happy spirited debates….
