What do you guys think of the Constitution Party?

[PaleoConPrep]

This a party I would support. I agree with almost everything they say. What do you think of the Constitution Party?

Get some sleep.

Living in reality by conscious choice, I don't waste much time on 3rd party philosophical flights of fancy.

Join the military, serve your country, gain practical experience in life.

What is your objective for your life at age 35? Profession, wife and kids, farm or business? Volunteer and/or church work? Hobbies?

[PaleoConPrep]

I can't join the military because I have a visual impairment. No vision in my right eye, and some in my left. At 35, I would like to
1. Have a wife and kids( I hope to meet my wife during undergrad)
2. Have purchased a house
3. Be a higher-up at a law firm or bank
4. Have joined  a country club. Golf and fish in my free time.
5. Have gone on a mission trip for my church. Hopefully somewhere in Europe.

Noble goals, PCP.

I presume from that, you are tipping us that you are a Mormon? Not that it is a bad thing, with me.

[PaleoConPrep]

No I'm not Mormon. I'm a Calvinist Anglican.( my church is Calvinist in its theology, but Anglican in its liturgy and governing structure) Mormons ARE NOT the only ones who do mission trips. The church I currently go to has done trips to Kenya and Uganda.

Only 144,000 going to be saved in your denomination?

At least tell the kid to arm up if he goes to Kenya.  It's 63% islamic.

" Only 144,000 going to be saved in your denomination?"
What the heck are you talking about? Don't make comments like that if you know nothing about Reformed theology. I'm quite the theological nerd, and really dislike people who make dumb comments like this. If you want to know more about my theology, here's a list of books and authors to look into.
Writings
1. The Bible
2. The 39 Articles
3. The Heidelberg Catechism
Authors
1. Jonathan Edwards
2. Thomas Cranmer
3. Martin Luther
4. John Calvin
also look at Knox, Ridley, Latiner, Spurgeon.

Strict Calvinism adheres to the belief that only 144,000 will be saved.

Read St Thomas Aquinas and we talk.  Right?

[ABX]

I guess this is too off the rails to give my opinion on the original question, but I will anyway. William F Buckley once said, (paraphrased), 'there is very little Constitutional about the Constitution Party'. Following them for a long time, I've found them to be mostly politically inept, hung up on fringe issues, conspiracy minded, and an odd almagum of theocrats and neo-confederates.  They've made the worst years of the Libertarian party look successful in comparison. They don't run to win, they run to make statements.

But that's just me being nice...

[PaleoConPrep]

Let me make a couple of points.
1. Only hyper-Calvinists believe that 144k will be saved. These people shouldn't even be called Calvinist, because Calvin never believed this. I'm not a hyper-Calvinist.
2. I've read Aquinas, and have great respect for the man.( even though I strongly disagree with him on several issues) Something that a lot of traditional Catholics seem to think is that Aquinas is the BEST theologian that ever lived, and that there is no one even close to him. This notion is laughable. Jonathan Edwards was just as strong as Aquinas. I think it would've been very close if they had debated. Watch Dr. James Whites debates with Catholics.
3. I've said this many times, and I'll say it again. William F. Buckley represents ONE type of conservatism. It's not like he is the King, and no one can disagree with him. There are PaleoCons, NeoCons, Libertarian Conservatives, etc. there are 2 things I rely on as guides to my politics. The Bible and the Constitution. Remember, EVERYTHING belongs to God, and without him there can be NOTHING.

[famousdayandyear]

So you've read Aquinas.  Too bad your writing composition and your verbal rhetoric does not reflect a basic understanding of English writing, let alone moral theology.  Take a breather.  I suggest Hilaire Belloc if you are a true student, and not an obnoxious politician. 

You are too defensive for my taste. 

[PaleoConPrep]

I'm not defensive. I'm   just responding to you.  This is a laid back forum( I don't need to pay attention to my rhetoric here) Honestly I wish I lived in 17th century England. I hate modern society.
Your right. Let's take a breather.

Brush up on your English composition and your English grammar if you want to be taken seriously.  Example:

"Your right" is bad grammar.  The correct statement is " You are right" or
"You're right".  You said you are a junior in some great college, but your writing is terrible.   

Get educated.  Work on your communication skills--written, verbal, whatever.  Get a tutor if necessary, because you come across as an aggressive amateur.  Putting it mildly.  Good luck.
