"Capt. Mooron" wrote in message ...
They claimed 78% of the state was opposed to moving a Christian religious monument.... that in no way indicates a minority. 81% of Americans said it should stay. Can't you see how this is viewed around the world? ... and it is being viewed I assure you. In Canada we don't seem to have the religious zealots in the numbers you have in the USA. We do not have all the draft dogers and cowards Canaduh has, So whats your point? Weather you claim that it is representative or not... your own media is doing more to damage your image than you seem to understand. Other countries will look at this and see little difference between the Christian Fanatics and the Muslim Fanatics. How many backwoods Alabama Fanatics are strapping on bombs and blowing themselfs up? Just because your from Canaduh and to dumb to see the difference dont mean the rest of the world is so stupid. CA CM "katysails" wrote in message ... Mooron, Those people are hardly representative of the religious people of the USA. They, also, are fanatics in their own way. The census figures for religions in 1989 we Religions: Protestant 56%, Roman Catholic 28%, Jewish 2%, other 4%, none 10% Protestant incorporates many different religions, some "catholic" in their viewpoints (Episcopalian, Lutheran, etc) and then there are the Calvinists (Presbyterians, Reformed, etc.), and then you have the Baptists and Methodists and Congregationalists, which are all pretty mainstream. And then you have the fundamentalists. Isn't it funny, that whenever you see the word fundamentalist, you can almost always also use the word fanatic? These people are a small percentage of the religious community, but they shout loud, shake fist harder, and bully their way through to make their point, which is unassailable (according to their tenants). There are more Catholics in the USA then any one other religion. Did you see them out there sitting on the stone? They didn't. And neither did most of the Protestants. Stop making over generalizations about loudmouthed boors that try to foist their ideas and their holy righteousness on everyone else in the name of God, democracy, and union. Religion really has nothing to do with this issue at all. These people haven't yet realized that if you cannot keep the law un your heart, you cannot keep the law in your life. |

No that's right... they just teach their kids it's okay to bring guns to school and kill their classmates, that it's just another day when someone gets fired and returns to take vengeance, that the government can go into places and set up training centers like the School of the Americas to train terrorists, or use trade leverage to rape other countries of their resources, or supply Israel with cash and weapons to hold a piece of land they couldn't possibly keep without interference, or to snub the world and start a war on fabricated evidence. When terrorism is done to people you consider opponents.. you label the aggressors as "Freedom Fighters" and supply them with the weapons. Oh yeah you guys are just so friggin' superior! NOT! You are responsible for some of the worst atrocities and terrorism on the planet. CM |
