I’m a 26 year old guy, currently living in the Washington D.C. area. I grew up in Edenton, a small Southern town in NC. I am currently in the Navy, hoping to try out for Navy SEALS in December. I spend a great deal of my spare time practicing Christian apologetics in various online venues.
My Greatest Intellectual Influences:
Greg Bahnsen. R.J. Rushdoony. Gary North. Murry Rothbard. C. Van TIl. J. Gresham Machen. Louis LaMour (for the hero in me.) William Wilberforce (for the gentleman in me.) Ron Paul (for the politician in me.) James Dean (Because we’re all a little rebelious.)
Thank you dear God for introducing me to these great men…these mentors…these kindred spirits. Click below for the story of a wet lion!

If only this world was comprised of Sonny Craigs only…We’d have no problems whatsoever. We’d know everything! rotfl. Ok. Maybe not.
It really is pathetic though, that Christians (or “Christians” anyway) would be this way all over the web!

LOL!!!

Sonny, where did I state that I disagreed with your comments? I haven’t read more then a couple of comments mainly because I am so busy. I have looked over them however, and pretty much I could sum it up in the words “You think you know pretty much everything”.
As for my being a genius and wanting to suck up to credentials, all I can do is laugh. I’m a dumb girl that has absolutely no credentials whatsoever, with the one exception that I’m a daughter of *the* King! I don’t need credentials in order to spread the truth.
If “with substance” means bragging on myself and letting everyone know how much I know and how little they know, I don’t want any “substance”.
Concerning your last statement, although your results may be accurate, I’m glad that this blog is full of original thoughts and not just flap of lips!

1. You’re NOT dumb
2. I’m SOOOO sorry that you had to see all that.
What a shame…I’m just starting this blog, and the cavalier attitude displayed by that guy was really discouraging, and NOT what I want my blog to turn into.
I really appreciate your kind words as well…it made my day!
There wont be any more of his posts here. It was a small bit of pride that caused me to allow that exchange to go on longer than it should have. I guess I’m not perfect after all.
God bless you Ms. Liberty!

Liberty, you are NOT dumb. Not.at.all. Even discussing something as simple as what we were talking about at church today you can completely send my brain into a spin.
July 21, 2008 at 2:55 pm |
You guys rock!
I can’t believe that guy actually started insulting Ms. Liberty…and on MY BLOG no less! (I deleted all of his comments.)

I second Shotgun and Anna Joy in the matter of Liberty not being Dumb!! And Third. And Fourth. And Fifth. And Sixth. And Seventh…..

I eighth Amber’s Seventh notion!

I agree “Liberty” is not dumb she’s very smart and is fun to be around…most of all I’m very thankful that she’s my sister!
August 29, 2008 at 10:22 pm |
And I do not think I would go THAT far. JK JK

LEARN from your sisters Ray…it makes dating a lot easier….(unless you happen to be the only guy in a house full of girls and they end up forcing you to wear dresses and makeup and have tea with them…then you should rebel with all the inner strength of a thousand manly power tools!)

Uh, I’m her oldest sister…:) Sorry, it’s kind of a nickname that a few people use…my name’s Rachel, or, “Rachelle” as “Liberty” calls me.

You know what….this just proves that…despite popular opinion…I’m NOT perfect after all!
I guess you could swap around what I said and apply it to a predominately male situation, where the mom and the single female sibling are surrounded by a rampant and frantic cloud of guys.
What do I know though…I’m a twin! I guess I get the best of both worlds! lol
(I’d like to express my deepest regret for such an embarrassing mistake on my part…my bad!)

Wow…ok… after reading through this “About Me” section again, I realize how boring it all must be. Since this is the page that gets the most hits (by far) I should really put some effort into re-writing something that accurately, cleverly, and humorously describes who I am.
Bare (bear?) with me folks! I’ve been on leave* for the past 2 weeks…getting back to my roots down in NC. So, I need to re-adjust to the blog schedule. Expect many new ones to come along shortly, especially blogs about the Hillsville Virginia Gun Show/ Flea Market!
* that’s “vacation” for you non-military folks!
September 2, 2008 at 1:56 pm |
LOLOLOL. I hadn’t seen this until Rachel told me about it. That’s HILARIOUS!
September 3, 2008 at 4:33 pm |
I can see how he made a mistake…”Liberty” didn’t even know who it was at first! whoops
Anyway, how many girls do you know that are called “Ray”?

…how many girls do you know that are called “Ray”?
About as many as similarly find themselves with little sisters named Liberty!
