Differences of opinion should not be mistaken for lack of values. It's a shame that some of those value oriented liberals you know aren't in politics or on judicial benches (whoops, those are the same thing for liberals). I suppose the big difference lies in how we define 'values'. I would imagine that my definition would be much different than that of Krause, jps, Kevin, et al. This article sums it up pretty well. Of course, I didn't write it, but hopefully you'll get the drift. http://tinyurl.com/a3a6gfy Sorry you're disappointed, but it's not the first time and probably won't be the last. |

Sometimes reasonable people with high values have to agree to disagree. More importantly, it is inappropriate to try and impose your religious beliefs on others and then accuse them of lacking "values". |

Other than, possibly, the first one, there is nothing religious there. I don't consider the first one a religious position. 'Marriage' was an institution that had some meaning. Now liberals, especially, have made it a sham. And, I agree that 'it is 'it is inappropriate to try and impose your religious beliefs on others', and that includes atheists imposing theirs. If you can't read that and determine what 'values' are being discussed, then I can understand your comments. |

Please explain how liberals have made marriage a sham and while you are at it, tell how atheists are "imposing" their beliefs. Atheists don't give a damn about your religious beliefs so long as you don't try to impose them on others. Atheists aren't imposing their beliefs on anyone...there are no door to door atheist. |

Atheists are using the court to enforce their beliefs. The door to door missionary is at least honest about their views, and you can just close the door in their face. |

I'm not aware of any court cases in which atheists are trying to force their non-belief in a creator on anyone else. Atheists do use the courts to attempt to keep religion out of the public schools and to keep religion out of public facilities and out of public budgets, actions they are entitled to take. There is nothing dishonest about this. |
