The main difference is that Christianitity is a Christ centered religion under the influence of the Holy Spirit, whereas Islam is an anti-christ centered religion under the influence of Satan the devil. And that is a major difference. 🙄

Lets vote the government down to nothing so all the companies can screw over the workers again and screw the environment, let the fracking begin and damn the consequences, its JOBS stupid.
Remember Kelly, anything FOX says is automatically a lie. Just because they are the only ones reporting it while all the other networks distract from it and sweep it under the carpet... it still MUST be a lie.
Repeat that a hundred times a day to yourself for a year, and you'll start to understand what it is to be what they call a liberal "drone."

Originally posted by sonhouseI do like the right slanting of Fox better. However, I have given up on looking at any other national new other than CNN. CNN is the only one that seems to be truly down the middle. They piss off the left and the right equally. That Anderson Cooper tries to keep them both honest. One time I hate the guy and the next time I love him to death.

I do like the right slanting of Fox better.
But it's not a matter of how many people in the country prefer which kind of spin. With the exception of the Sean Hannity show (which I avoid), FOX News spins very little, and presents people from both sides of the issues they discuss. The reason FOX has dominated prime time cable TV (and is beginning to overtake non-cable TV in the same time slots) is because people enjoy and appreciate hearing the unadulterated TRUTH by journalists and analysts who aren't in bed with the President.
Oh, and you'll find that most people who denigrate FOX News, don't even watch the channel (because they hate it, duh), and the information they use to trash the channel is a bunch of spin from the hard-left-leaning mainstream media and various left wing websites.
Sorry, but if FOX is so horrible and Conservatism is so ugly and evil, then I'm afraid it's a country-wide problem because FOX News continues to succeed by wide margins, every year, and Conservative Talk Radio lives strong while Liberal Talk Radio has failed in its every attempt to gain a foothold. It's not a conspiracy-it's just that most American people find Liberalism to be silly, absurd, and completely against their values.

I can use whatever criteria I want for thumbing.
You should pursue a high-level position in the Obama administration. I'm thinking Czar... Czar of what, though... internet forums? Someone's got to squelch all the dissent in these forums.
You should really look into it.

I'm sorry what?
Hook line and sinker, you don't think 4 people were killed?
You don't think there are riots with people burning the American flag?
What is it that Fox has said you think is wrong?
What is that Fox has said that none of the other networks have said?

I just wanted to add that I am not an Obama supporter. That sort of thing seems to make some US people really touchy.
Dont like the US but have to live with it,have to deal with it. After all they are the country most likely to bring the world together and stop all this horrendous stuff. Then again while America keeps waging wars on foreign soil and arming it's citizens to keep the country safe,(and other such counter intuitive ideas), I dont think much will change.

If I wanted to squelch dissent, I'd become a mod and start deleting your posts. But that would deprive too many other users of free entertainment. Please, go on saying whatever you want!

Sometimes an outsider can give you a lot of independent opinions of you that are invalueable if you can see the context ... or whatever.

I look at it like this, Islam is 1400 years old and Christianity is near 2000 years old, in terms of the evolution of the religion Islam is 600 years behind Christianity.
