Lieberman forum

I went to Senator Lieberman’s forum and I really enjoyed it. It opened my eyes. At first I thought he was a Latter Day Saint but as he kept talking, he is Jewish! It was really awesome to listen to him. Here are some of the things that I wrote down that I liked. He said that people with faith share gratitude of what we have been given. An example is life. The bible tells us that we are here because of divine creation.

We are all children of God. It was very interesting listening to him talk about the Sabbath. We have to honor God. I really enjoyed him talking about people respecting him and his differences. I was glad that he honors his religion. He talked about shared values. Equality, service, respect, tolerance. It makes me happy that there are people out there who believe in God and have shared values.

I really loved how he said that you have to have confidence in yourself. It is a foundation. Sadly I had to leave early but I left right after he said that faith leads to hope. That is so true. Faith really does lead to hope.

  1. My favorite part was when he said “America’s borders are not set by a geographical location, but moral values." I had never thought of that. SO cool
