Well if that's the way you want to interpret it then fine. I'll say it this way:

I can spell so therefore I am allowed to berate you atrocious spelling.

Clear?
Look I have heard it preached that way at a Baptist Church and also at a Penticostal Church to.

Look I also said in a post for God's forgiveness of that to. I was just saying that because the person who made that thread was not right in saying that Bush is wrong.

Anyone can say that anyone is wrong.
Like this:
You're wrong RBHill.

You believe people are wrong for not believing God or for not repenting their sins. I believe you are wrong for believing in God and repenting your sins.
STANG is not wrong for saying Bush is wrong. It's an opinion. How can you say his opinions are wrong?

Actually, it's an opinion held by billions of people.

While I am naturally very glad that spelling and, therefore, education, is rated so high on this board, I feel I can offer a number of opinions.

The first, that if everybody were to abstain from criticising and supporting politicians, such as Mr Bush, then democracy would not work. Therefore, your suggestions, RBHILL, with regards to not criticising Bush are flawed - in this case, arguement should be encouraged over politicians, not put down just because it isn't "nice."

I would also point out, however, that a good debate needs a certain level of maturity, and I'm not sure that claiming Bush to be an idiot is the best way to put across ones' opinions. On the other hand, if you can reason it out properly, then why not maintain that? Personally I am in support of Bush's foreign policy. My problems with the Republican Government are over his economic policies, his environmental and energy policies, and his overly evangelical presidency.

I see the world as one big project - the mission being sustainable existence for all.

As with any project, there are a number of stakeholders and there will inevitably be conflict of interests. The challenge in the world project is that there are many stake holders. The responsibility of managing the project therefore needs to be shared by people not necessarily at the top of the heirarchy. We therefore all have a higher degree of responsibility than we might think.

An important characteristic of a good project manager is their ability to conceive possible situations, to consider and to make contingencies for these.

Here’s a question regarding a likely situation …

How much concern do American's have when allowing for the possibility that the balance of power is going to shift over the next 50 years whilst America continues to be perceived as an aggressor with suspect motives ?

This is a question about how the world will be when America no longer enjoys its current level of control and the world is short of diplomacy and full of weapons. By diplomacy I mean a past and present where fair and peaceful outcomes have been negotiated.

This is not a debate about whether America will or will not survive as a super power.

What do you see the outcomes being in the situation and to what degree do you feel concerned ?

Would that be a spelling mistake ('you' instead of 'your'😉? Or just a grammatical error? 🙂
