Have I implied you are unintelligent in every thread? Gosh I'm so sorry. I'l try to keep things simpler. I'll do my best to keep things within a K-7 age range.
Another insult, bravo! I'm glad I could help you meet your weekly quota. What is the number of non-Christians that you are required to treat poorly in order to maintain your Good Christian status?
Is there any particular reason you see it at all fit for Christians to have to fight for the same things that are freely given to others? Is this part of the american legal system or is this a judgement call a person makes on a case by case basis depending on how they feel at the moment? Why do people believe this? Do you think it is because they are well-informed or ill-informed and who taught them this?
Where did you get the idea that I said Christians should be required to fight for their rights? I said that Christians should get the same rights as members of any other religion. If they are being denied their rights then they should fight for them. I will try to be more clear in my responses.
For instance, if Molly gets a free soda in the cafeteria, why is it ok to threaten Amy with loss of her kindetgarten degree for getting a free soda while she is humming 'Jesus Loves Me?'
I specifically stated that it is NOT ok to threaten her with anything just because she loves Jesus.
The ACLU agrees:
here and
here.
Also, in regard to this:
Then you believe that the US should be a Christian theocracy?
Exactly which 'Christian' beliefs do you believe I believe that would support a Christian theocracy?
Exodus 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
Exodus 20:8 - 10: Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates
How exactly do you see this Christian Theocracy working? Should it force my Christian views on the general population, Catholic Christian views, Mormon, Evangelical, Pentecostal, which? Do you actually believe all christians everywhere actually agree on everything?
They seem to want their moral code to become law. Some are appropriate: No stealing, no murder. Some don't seem appropriate: No Homosexuality, Limits on free speech, No other God but ours.
You seem to have a fear of a Christian theocracy, you have mentioned it before. Somehow it looks like a rather very unfounded fear from my perspective.
Then you think it would be ok to tell Muslims and Hindu's that they cannot practice their religion?
You think it is ok to make certain books, movies and artwork illegal?
Perhaps you would be wise to investigate the meaning of ill-informed and where/who plants these types of ideas in peoples' minds and why and then ask yourself if this problem might not be inclusive of many other things you also believe. It's rather obvious you have already been subtlely duped before and thus one needs to ask where else this is affecting you and your ideas and behaviors and judgements of others. It's not possible to be duped only once past age 12 or so if you are susceptible to that sort of thing..
What do you think I have been duped about and what information made it "obvious" that I had been duped?
If I don't believe that I have been duped I would not have asked those questions of myself.
Maybe you can help me out by showing me something that makes me understand where I have been duped. Remember, K-7 only <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
