I received the link in an email and thought it was pretty scary. http://downloads.cbn.com/cbnnewsplay....swf?aid=17933 From CBN and it's not political? Hehehe. Right. It has already started he http://news.yahoo.com/judge-dismisse...204051912.html We have a long history in this country of the self-described religious attacking/isolating/discriminating against those whose beliefs differ from theirs, a history that began long before anyone noticed we have Muslims here. Such religious bigotry is as American as apple pie. What is the difference between those who have a religious axe to grind and those with a political axe to grind. Exactly! When the Ayatollah Santorum has his way, we'll be a theocracy just like that. Do you want to be a Catholic theocracy or a Muslim theocracy? What's the difference? The problem is that you lefties are willing to lay down and be walked all over by the Muslims but, when it is any form of Christianity you freak out. Really? I don't recall saying or implying that I am "willing to lay down and be walked all over by Muslims." You should cut back on those magic 'shrooms. Don't start projecting your recreational activities onto me or others. As a student of history (actual history, not the "conservative" view of history), I don't see the difference between being slaughtered by christian zealots or by muslim zealots, the two religious groups under discussion in this thread. Both religions have a long and bloody history of slaughter in the name of the faith. Actions speak louder than words Harry. Your actions and your fellow lefty's action's belie your words. I also don't "freak out" about christianity. To me, it's just another superstition-based collection of beliefs. My objections arise when its practitioners attempt to force their religious beliefs onto my secular society. I'm having many good laughs these days watching the "christian" political zealots fall on their swords over womens' reproductive health issues. We don't have a secular society. Never have and never will. Women's reproductive health? This is a joke and most people can see right through the "issue." The poor student Ms. Fluke is a 30 year old woman who is going to Georgetown Law on a "public interest" (http://www.law.georgetown.edu/pils/) scholarship. Her whole "beef" is that someone else isn't paying for her birth control pills. Her argument falls apart when it comes down to the low cost of condoms. When a 30 year old woman stands up and says I want someone else to pay for my birth control pills while I attend law school on a scholarship, she doesn't garner sympathy from the majority of the country. So... because she doesn't need birth control pills for reproductive health means that no other woman needs it for that purpose as well? Typical. You are an idiot. I'll repeat it just to make sure it sinks in, you are an idiot. This has nothing to do with "reproductive health" whatever that means. If birth control pills are not covered then they are not covered. If Ms. Fluke wants birth control pills then she is free to purchase them herself. No one is preventing her from purchasing birth control pills. The question on the table is why can't Ms. Fluke pay for her own birth control pills? Birth control pills are not the only method of contraception if Ms. Fluke doesn't want to get pregnant while engaging in her sexual adventures. The following sponsors: Sleep Train, ProFlowers, Quicken Loans, Sleep Number, Legal Zoom, Citrix Systems Inc., the NBA Cleveland Cavaliers, and more, are dumping Limbaugh and his big, greasy, racist, misogynist, right-wingnut, mouth. Wonder why? I don't care why they are "dumping" him. |

There's no answer to that question that we have yet, but just because we don't know is no reason to attribute it to the superstition of religion. |

Okay, but then YOU have to answer the same question. My answer is, we have no solid proof of just what created the universe. Your turn. |
