The Left Comes Out In Support Of Fred Phelps

1 religion and family
2 guns

Religion and family are one thing?

Speaking of ploys, this is typical of fundamentalist groups such as Focus on the Family. The tactic is to ingrain in people's minds that religion and family are inseparable. This is, of course, nonsense.

Didn't you realize that if you dont have a family (opposite sex spouse and children) you cant have religion.

I am surprised you did not know this

By the way, good post!

Silly me.

It goes further than simple association of religion and family. The tired code phrase "family values" actually means Christian values. Only Dobsonite or Robertsonist Christians can have a true family.

By the way, good post!

Thank you.

Would you care to address the topic here?

I was addressing the post to which I was responding, and my comments were quite relevant to that very topic.

I never said infringe means to ban. I said if guns were banned, that would infringe on the right to bear arms.

I couldn't care less what you've seen from the left (everyone who disagrees with you is not "the left"), but what I see from your argument is a lack of logic.

...the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Examine that clause, Mach. What cannot be infringed is the right, not the type of arms. The Constitution does not say "any and all arms." It simply says "arms." Since you are allowed to "keep and bear arms," your right to do so is not being infringed.

An excellant point that any strict constitutionalist would have to agree with.
