Due to one of the hottest political issues in our state’s history, traveling through Kanawha County has now become a silent debate.  An afternoon drive results in passing signs that announce “Vote NO on August 11″ or “Vote YES for Kanawha County on August 11.”  It is an issue that has sparked heated debates and even a few serious disputes.  On August 11th, the public of Kanawha County will vote on whether or not our nearby gambling facility should be allowed to include table games.

I’m not going to take the time to discuss my feelings on this matter.  Politics usually make my head and heart hurt because of the amount of animosity that usually follows political issues and I may not be able to discuss it without going on for quite a few paragraphs.  I will say that my answer does not come from an economic issue or a moralistic one.

I just returned from a rally where one of the presenters asked a question you don’t usually expect at a political rally:  How would God vote on August 11th?  Good question.  His answer is my answer.  Enough said.
