I was sitting here tonight and looking at some of the photos from the Reagan Library. While doing so I came a bit of a realization — I have done on this blog; what I have decried others doing: I have become a bit of an offensive conservative. Sure, as a Fundamentalist Christian; I have issues with Zionism, Judaism, Islam and Roman Catholicism; however, that does not excuse some of the stuff in my sidebars. So, I am going to remove them. I will, however, keep the gospel tract there for someone who might need to read it.
The reason for this is this: I was looking at the photos from the Reagan White House era. President Ronald Reagan was a Conservative; but, he was never an offensive man. He simply stuck to his principles, but not in an abrasive, nasty way. I realize now, that I should be following Reagan’s example of this; when it comes to all things. This is simply the Christian way, and I have failed in this area. Christian and Conservative principles are a good thing; but if they are exercised in a manner that is offensive, they become quite useless.
I will try to do a bit better from here on out.
