There is at least a little interest at your site in the free on-line
boating publication, Pacific Nor'West Boating. It's available at
www.pacnwboat.com
The July 1 issue (our fifth) ushers in some new software. Use the up,
down, left, and right keys to move around a page. Bumping the top of
the window with a mouse will bring up a menu for turning pages,
searching the content of the issue, etc. Bumping the bottom of the
window will allow a reader to adjust the zoom.
And hey, everybody, have a happy and safe Independence Day. Fly that
flag proudly- that variety of shapes and colors unites in a way that
is far more meaningful than if there were only one shape, one color,
or one symbol on the flag. We're a nation of different ideals and
opinions, but like the flag we are stitched together to form a whole
more perfect than the sum of its parts. :-)
Trivia for you:
Can any flag or pennant be flown, properly, higher than the US Flag?
Simply, No.
Unless you believe in a state religion and then what "church flag" do
you choose and which chaplain of what religion? It must be a "higher
ranking" flag, so which religions rank higher?
A bit more nautical trivia to support my position:

Article XI, Voted unanimously by the Senate(Nov., 1796) and signed by
the President.
Again, no.
Well lookie here

Yeah, well answer the questions I posed.
It was a moronic and irrelevent question. Your position has no legs.
I didn't think you could handle it. Let me paraphrase this for you:
"Although the national flag should be the highest flag, a [mosque]
flag may be flown above it when a [Islamic] naval chaplain is
conducting [mosque] services aboard a ship at sea."
Now, grow some balls and answer the question.

What about atheists and agnostics? Do they get to have their flag flown
above the US flag aboard ships when they aren't holding religious services?
That was my point, but I was summarily brushed off. Fine, the old and
stupid, here, can hold to their positions. I'll continue speaking to
the young.
Why didn't you say so instead of beating around the bush. You deserved
to be summarily brushed off.
Those folks can't fly flags because they don't have religions, they
don't have religious symbols to put on flags and they don't conduct
religious services. They are basically devoid of any beliefs so they
don't have anything to wave a flag about anyway.
