geez, anthony, you must have gotten to know only the rotten ones! there are a lot of good people in this country, as any other, not all gov. are good, some are awful. i feel like ours is pretty good, if people would interpret the constitution properly and quit trying to bend it to suit themselves. There are 2 "businessmen" in our congregation, both are hard workers, and give of themselves, and their resources. not only to the church, but to a lot of worthy causes. they are very generous, humble people. the earth is populated with people, some good, some not, but people themselves have carved out the countries, and cities, and etc. if you remove them, you still have the same people, regardless of race, language, laws, religion, etc.
i hate to tell you, but you are a people too! (a good one at that)
