General Discussion on life, psychics, spirituality, and other phenomena  

There are so many things I see, and hear almost on a daily basis in this country that confuses me. As many of you know I am an avid talk radio listener. This brings up my next subject Happy-Mediums (so don't know any other word for it). I have even touched on this a few times in some of my college papers that I had to write in the last college I was in. My first instance of this problem is the whole evolutionist versus creationist. I am a Christian and I do very much believe in God, and creationism. There is, however, evidence that some forms of evolution has taken place over the earths existence.
On one hand you have people who believe that only evolution happened as well as the big bang theory. Then on the other hand you have people who believe that God created the earth in 6 days, and everything that is here is the same as it was during creation. Well why not have a Happy-Medium and realize that yes there is some evidence of evolution. Believing in evolution does not disprove the existence of God. Many Christians do not get it. In fact it would strongly strengthen their debates with evolutionist if they looked at this in another perspective. Wouldn't believing that some (certainly not all, especially that whole "we came from monkeys" thing) prove that God is even more amazing then just creating the earth in 6 days. I mean think about it. He made us and all living things with the ability to adapt to our environment over time. Instead many Christians believe that looking at it in this perspective would be wrong. I don't recall seeing that anywhere in the Bible. I may go into this subject deeper at another time.
My next example is the welfare system. On one hand you have a group that believes the welfare system should punish you for being married, and for bettering your self in any way. Support you for pretty much the rest of your life. All the while keeping you poor, and never let you progress past barely surviving. Then on the other hand you have those who don't wanna help you at all past some Church assistance. There should most certainly be a Happy-Medium here. The problem with punishing you for being married has been greatly lessened since Bush took away much of the marriage penalties (any liberal reading this will argue this I am sure of it, but I know this first hand). Why not have a system that increases education, and the affordability of it. Why not have a system that encourages getting on your own feet with some assistance. That rewards you for doing the right things to better yourself. I have written a whole paper on this subject in college. I could go much further in detail, but for the sake of time I won't.
These are just a two examples on Happy-Mediums needed in this country. I have often thought that instead of Democrat or Republican there needed to be a third party. The Happy-Medium party. That takes the idea of both parties, and makes a compromise. I think there would be less anger, and bitterness among the parties if we could come to this. I am sure I will think of many other examples and write a part 2 to this one of these days.
