That is why we can't use democratic as an adjective.
Democrats are ****ed off lesbians from Baltimore like MM Ohair, who
drive around the country trying to be offended.

Perhaps you have not actually read the amendment.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or
prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of
speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to
assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

What "law" was made when they allowed a religious object was allowed
to be placed on public property?
In fact a law banning that object is "prohibiting the free exercise
thereof".

I understand there are some SCOUTS decisions but a different court
might rule the other way and it could even be this one.

I see you ducked the "democratic" thing altogether. It is the
"democrat" thing to do I guess.


Perhaps you were just not 'entitled' to a response.


Harry gets his panties in a bunch every time he hears about some
religious symbol placed on public property at zero cost to the tax
payer but I didn't hear a peep about the Maryland tax payers forking
over $70 MILLION for the racist "Redskin" stadium. (now pimping for

Establishment cause did not ban religion! Founding fathers even used under
God. Stated there would not be a State Religion established. Vis a vis
Church of England.


And/or The Church of Rome...

The fact that you are trying to equate illegal religious promotion with
taxpayers subsidizing pro football is a perfect example of why it is
foolish to engage in serious debate in rec.boats.

Well, since you have determined that us common folk lack your
intellectual capacity for discussion or debate, perhaps you should move
on to another newsgroup or forum to do your trolling.

There are significant differences among agnostics, atheists, and
anti-religionists.

Yes, Agnostics mind their own business about it. Atheists stay
offended like you or are you calling yourself anti religionist (which
is probably more accurate anyway)


'Anti-religionistists' is a new one on me. I suppose most atheists would fall in that
category.


I thought it describes a lot of people perfectly. They live to
ridicule other people's most deeply held beliefs and rid their
universe of any reminders that people think differently than they do.

Considering how badly many self-described christians here in rec.boats
behave towards other posters, I say the ridicule is deserved.
