What comes first? God, Country, Family? For you whackos I guess I'll add People of the World and Nature. For me, it's God. |

I voted "People of the World/United Nations" because without those folks at the UN, we'd all be doomed to self-destruction. Kofi Annan is a big teddy bear and I want to give him a hug. Just like the Beatles said, "all you need is love". I believe it was Rodney King that asked "can't we tall just get along". I'm gonna quit eating meat so my little furry friends will finally be at peace without worrying about the war-mongering white man. Time for me to buy a hybrid car so I can help save us from consuming the world's oil supply. Guns are baaaaad and should all be banned from existance. Gayness is wonderful and should be promoted to our children. Tax the rich. Feed the poor. I want more free shit. You wealthy white fuckers OWE me. ...and so on, and so forth........ |

God...hands down. Without God you don't have the sacrament of marriage where two becomes one. Without that a stable household is difficult. And the rights due us in this great country are all God given, hence He comes before the state also. God is the creator of people and nature, so again, He is ahead. Simple really. Sgtar15 |

Sgtar15 Oh Ye of little faith. The gods really do want your wife to come first, they know they will get their dues in the end. |

There is only God and God Himslelf (but we have covered that before). ANd when God is put first my relationship will always be right with the wife, for my thoughts will be what God wants me to do for her. Understand. Sgtar15 |

Quoted: Quoted: 1.wife 2.kids 3.family (other) 4.nature (god) 5.country I'm a Christian. That should spell out for you the God that I worship. From my point of view, it only seem right that I should put the [b]creator[/b] before the [b]created[/b]. |

Sooner or later You will see the light, I will pray for you in the mean time. |

Quoted: He is. You just aren't aware of it. And why would you make this overweening and presumtuous statement? You're pretty confident that God would pay my mortgage if I got hurt and was unable to work? You're sure that God would take care of things if I had a problem, so I wouldn't have to ask my family for help? |

Sgtar15 WOW Sgtar15. That is like the first complete, comprehensive, logical, well thought out argument I have ever seen you make. And to top it all off, you are 100% correct at the same time! Stop the world please.... I wanna get off. |

But no, I am not confident that God would pay your mortgage. I am confident that he is our Lord and will allow challenges to be placed in front of us during our lives. Perhaps the blessing from God is that you do have a family that would take care of you during that time. Perhaps not. I can't explain everything in the world, but I have my trust in the Lord. That's why it's called "faith." |

I dont think God is overly concerned about your mortgage, or your working status. Those are such short term issues. He is far more concerned about being with you, and your family, for eternity. |
