Just for once let us all try to be honest.

Well, I'm sure they're pleased unbelievers are doing their work over here for them.

Starting with the Bible in schools and Ten Commandments on our courthouse lawns.

Their attitude towards us is probably:

Give them enough rope and the unbelievers will hang them (the Christians).

No one is doing the Muslims work for them, why would you think such a silly thing?

ETA: Does Sharia law belong in the U.S.? How about bans on women showing their faces? I know that you would not want that in your schools.

When you open the door to one religion you open it to all of them.

He had bigger fish to fry.

I'll take that as a NO.

So Valentine's going to have to come up with a better speech from him.

One that's a little more specific.

(Well ... okay ... a lot more specific.)

 

[AV1611VET]

He knew that if "Christians" actually had them in their hearts, they wouldn't need to be on the lawns.

Uh-huh.

And I'm Genghis Khan.

Not really. His point was still right on.

I couldn't disagree more.

 

[Subduction Zone]

Uh-huh.

And I'm Genghis Khan.

Yes, we know that. You showed that you were Genghis Khan in a discussion with me just yesterday.

 

[Subduction Zone]

Yes, but you being obviously wrong is hardly breaking news.

Now, now, AV -- you're usually proud of your ignorance.

There is no valid evidence for your "Supreme Judge". It appears that you would laugh at someone making the same claims as you just did about Allah. Yet they have just as much evidence for their beliefs as you have for yours.

I have no Idea what you're talking about Allah---never mentioned him.
Don't worry, the day will come, believe it or not, like it or not, you will meet my Supreme Judge, for he is yours too. Difference will be, I have His Son as my Defense Attorney, all you'll have is a prosecuting attorney, and he is vile.

I saw it.

I'm talking about the Ten Commandments.

I can't believe ... well, I can ... that you guys think allowing the Ten Commandments on the courthouse lawn would threaten to lead to Sharia Law.

If you're so concerned that other religions are going to invade us that you have to call for dismissals of godly men like Judge Moore, it seems to me you would post the Ten Commandments -- not remove them.

The Ten Commandments to us is ... well ... a sign that says: GOD IS WELCOME HERE.

But to other religions, it spells: KEEP OUT.

Nope, you and I will end up in the same place.

Perhaps you should try to learn why and how we know that the stories in Genesis never happened. We could start on something simple like the Noah's Ark story.

The Ten Commandments are rather poor moral guides to say the least. There are better sources for moral behavior. And you don't seem to get the point.

Those are not "your courthouses".

You cannot exclude others if you intrude with your own religion. It is best to keep matters of faith outside of the government sphere of power.

By the way, which one of the Trinity is the prosecuting attorney?

 

[AV1611VET]

Wow.

Just wow.

That is one sad train of thought.

We're "intruders" are we?

That's sad ... that's really very sad.

No likely, but you keep on dreaming. I have a bunch of bread that I have to go make,I stay up all night due to medical issues and can only sleep a little during day. So, off to play with my yeast and you can play ---"Nope---there is no God, Nope, there is no God, Nope there is no GodWe'll both be finding out soon--I'll have missed out on nothing in this life and in the next gain everything, you on the other hand----ouch!

 

[AV1611VET]

Praying for you.

 

[mmksparbud]

Praying for you.

Thanks---umm--I also have colon cancer and possibly renal cancer---silly me left some stupid window open and they flew in! It's not going to be fun getting the little critters out! You might add a little prayer for a good heavy duty broom to sweep them out with! I see the surgeon around Christmas ---Merry Christmas!! But I am praying for a Happy New Year!!

I agree. Well said AV. Anytime another Christian tries to claim it is not exclusionary to post the ten commandments I shall refer them here.
