Welcome ...
I hope you're not put off by the overwhelming presence of atheists on this site. There's a lot of very knowledgable, interesting people who have plenty to contribute. We need a better balance of people with sciences, arts, religion etc.
Contrary to what Clive said in the "Almighty God" thread, I do not "bite", and was brought up as a Christian in Bournemouth. I Praise God Almighty for His favours upon us, and ask Him to forgive us for our shortcomings ...
I totally agree with you on the matter of looking after the planet, and although I don't vote very often, I'm VERY keen on green politics.
I also share your concern for those people unfortunate enough to be "trapped" in a life of mental illness. It's a complicated situation, and both physical and mental health in this country are deteriorating somewhat in UK at the moment.
"No nation will change until the people change". That is, I believe that we can't always blame politicians, but it's our own attitude and righteousness that will help us ...
Hope to see you around ... Peace

 Posted May 27, 2009 by YourMessyplay Yes, I agree with you that, "No nation will change until the people change". The reason for this is that this society only has itself to blame for the state it's in: Obesity, financial problems, family breakdown etc and so on. People try to blame God or politics for the state of things, when we (as a society) only have ourselves to blame. And the solution is this (as told us by the Lord himself): 2 Chronicles 7:14 "if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land". God Bless you too.
