You probably don't realize that is one of the fundamental
purposes of
the church that you fight so hard against ... to provide

national and
world-wide level.

I don't fight against "the church" until it tries to shove
itself in my life.

Or, do like I do when the Jehovah's Witness' or Mormons show
up at the door. I tell them I will listen to their pitch
but, they first have to listen to my pitch to become a
Catholic. Usually the say not thank you and get on their way.

You really truly are a dumb foch. I am not talking here about
the door to door church people.

Enlighten me Mr. Genius! What is the difference between the
President of the US saying God Bless and the guy knocking on
your door with the intent on converting you to his religion?

Neither of those events concern me.

Ok, what specific events concern you?

There are quite a few. Most of them concern churchies trying to
force their beliefs on the rest of society. I'll bet with that
hint, you can figure out one or two of them.

Don't Mormon's and Jehovah's Witness' fall into that category?

Let's see if you have any smarts...

I don't care what religions do (within reason) within their houses
of worship, nor do I care what believers do in their homes. I am
only concerned when those religions or believers try to shove their
beliefs onto my secular society. This is NOT a Christian nation, a
Jewish nation, a Muslim nation, et cetera. I don't want a bunch of
Christian nut cases determining what is taught in public schools,
when "life" begins, whether we should have abortions, what sort of
stem cell research is ok, what stores can remain open on Sunday, et
cetera.

Got it now?

I understand that you come across as a spoiled brat. If things are
not the way you expect or want then they are wrong.

It is not your secular society, it is our society. The majority of
our society disagrees with your view of religion in the public
square. This country was founded and formed by those who publicly
professed a belief in God. You don't have to like you just have to
accept it and live with it.

Like it or not those "Christian nut cases" determine a lot of what
happens in our society.

Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooosh.
I'm not talking about a profession of faith. D'uh.

Sure you are. What is the differences between someone saying God Bless
You and asking you if your have been saved?

BTW, when I am asked if I have been saved I quickly respond back with
yes I am saved, I am a Catholic. They quickly walk away.

Just what the hell are you afraid of hearing and why can such a
erudite word smith such as yourself come up with a retort that stops
the asker dead in their tracks?

You are not discussing what I am discussing.

What are you discussing. You keep referring to they and them and for
some reason you won't name them specifically.

Using descriptions what group of "Christian nut cases" are you afraid of
and why?- Hide quoted text -

He talks of religeon being shoved down his throat but only gives
opinions and talking points as examples. He still has not answered the
origional question of who has shoved it down his throat, because
nobody has..
