Enlighten me Mr. Genius! What is the difference between the

door with the intent on converting you to his religion?
Neither of those events concern me.
Ok, what specific events concern you?
There are quite a few. Most of them concern churchies trying to force
their beliefs on the rest of society. I'll bet with that hint, you can
figure out one or two of them.
Don't Mormon's and Jehovah's Witness' fall into that category?
Let's see if you have any smarts...
I don't care what religions do (within reason) within their houses of
worship, nor do I care what believers do in their homes. I am only
concerned when those religions or believers try to shove their beliefs
onto my secular society. This is NOT a Christian nation, a Jewish
nation, a Muslim nation, et cetera. I don't want a bunch of Christian
nut cases determining what is taught in public schools, when "life"
begins, whether we should have abortions, what sort of stem cell
research is ok, what stores can remain open on Sunday, et cetera.

others. It has nothing to do with compassion and it certainly has

So tell us well heeled son, who has shoved religeon down your throat,
and what did it take to stop them? I mean, Vonage and Free Credit
Report.com try to give me a message every day, I don't mind, I just
don't pay attention. Have you ever been refused anything because you
were not willing to listen?

Oi!

We're not discussing the same thing here. The fundamentalist retardos
have limited the federal government's involvement in stem cell research.
Work on that awhile.

I did some research a while back with my kid (the one in DC working
for the lib lobby group) and she concluded as did I that there has
been many more successful projects from other forms of stem cells and
none from the embrionic type.. Aside from a desire to spend a lot of
money on projects that have resulted in zero progress is just not
practical to a lot of secularists like her either... Besides, I still
contend that we are not a secular society, that is the change that
your party wants. I don't fault you, just think you are wrong and
shortsighted...

May I suggest that you focus on those that are trying to force their
beliefs on you and let society decide for themselves?

Eisboch
Make all the suggestions you like. I will work, however, against those
who
are in the business of shoveling their religious beliefs onto society.

Thank you for your concern, but I'd rather do it myself, thanks.

Kill 'em all!!!

Whoops - wrong thread again.

Sorry. :)


I was thinking maybe we were getting to the core difference between classic
liberal and classic conservative philosophies.

The former seems to think they are responsible for all.
The latter focuses on individual responsibility.

I would agree with that, only I would substitute they for government.

I understand that you come across as a spoiled brat. If things are not
the way you expect or want then they are wrong.

It is not your secular society, it is our society. The majority of our
society disagrees with your view of religion in the public square. This
country was founded and formed by those who publicly professed a belief
in God. You don't have to like you just have to accept it and live with it.

Like it or not those "Christian nut cases" determine a lot of what
happens in our society.
