Those words, "We are endowed by our Creator," are in the Preamble to the Constitution. Might consider going back to third grade civics class for a refresher course. I know it kills you to understand how much God influences the Christians in this country, but He does, and they vote. Next election we will be on the lookout for vote fraud in every polling place in the country, and the Democrats will not be able to steal votes with both hands.

Wow, for a guy who seems to base his position on "everyone is entitled to his/her own opinion" your 724 rambling emotional posts demeaning everything from "neo-cons" to "religious superstition" to some person from PA being a "one thought fits all clown" short seem to undercut your "high road" approach.
Go ahead and wear out your keyboard Gunny - 80% of people in this country still disagree with you about the existence of a higher power in the universe. And most of us could care less if that percentage is down a couple points from whatever survey fuels your fire.

O.K. you're right, it is not a low blow to tell someone to choke on a wafer!
And that's right I am not going to change. This country has been this way long before the people on here were born and we intend to keep it that way. So if they do not like it, can't just sit back and live their own lives and leave us alone. Leave things the way they are in the country, stop filing law suits to try and change things, they can gladly move somewhere they think it might be better! No one is telling them they can not be whatever they are, just leave us be us.
That's what I said and I stand by it. I do not bother them, I could care less about them, but I am sick of hearing them pitch a fit everytime it's Christmas or Easter, or the Pledge of Alligence or what ever else gets their panties in a bunch, then they have to start suing and threatening to demand change.
So you can stop trying to change me. It will not happen.
I NEVER TOLD ANYONE THEY WERE WRONG, JUST TO STOP TRYING TO CHANGE THE WAY THIS COUNTRY IS AND JUST GO ON WITH YOUR OWN LIFE. THEY ARE THE ONES WHO CLAIM THEY WILL BE THE MAJORITY ONE DAY AND THEY WILL BE IN CONTROL, SO WHO IS TELLING WHO TO CHANGE????

Hey, Mav, did you respond to the wrong post? I'm on your page.
I stopped going to church long ago because I got tired of some righteous **** standing up their telling me what a sinner I am. Yeah, real uplifting. I also got tired of all the contradictions in the bible. Belief without proof is pure folly.

You can practice your religion any way you want to. Handle snakes. Bow to the pope. Exert mind-control over the weak. I don't really care. That is what the country is about. You get what you pay for.
But, when you inject an incoherent mess of beliefs into the public debate, and attempt to mold society so that it conforms to your backwards, narrow-minded, rigid catechism, that is something all together different.
People like you will never succeed because the rest of us enjoy freedom. And that means freedom from infringement into our lives by people like you.
Your movement will fail because ultimately the rest of us want and enjoy our freedom. Plenty of Christian people in this country are appalled at the goals of your reconstructionist movement. And if history is any indication, when Americans mobilize against tyranny, we win.
It doesn't matter if you change or not. You have the right to publicly proclaim your ignorance if that makes you feel like a better "christian".

Uh, this came from contestant #22:
So our congress has once again decided to ignore the bill of rights and keep you fundies happy with your delusions. Doesn't do a thing except make you all look like hypocrites and hate-mongers. Just look at the latest surveys on religion; your self-righteous intolerance is driving people away from your mythology. Can't wait until become as secular as Europe!
I see someone beat me to this; however, since your reading comprehension is in question, we'll give you a second chance to read this.

I am still a believer (Catholic). Can't remember the last time I went to church of my own volition, though. It's not God. For me it's all the humans that get between me and God. The ignorance of these fools is at times jaw dropping.

Ours is not the movement or the ones who are trying to change everything.
You and yours are and you WILL FAIL!!!!!

Just curious, did you read that in the bible? Old Testament, perhaps. Isaiah?

"Can't wait until become as secular as Europe!" is poor grammar. There is no subject, therefore the intent of the author can't be discerned.
No, my reading skills are fine. It's your grammar skills which are questionable.
Guess they don't teach grammar in church, huh?
I'd really have to question your grammatical skills.

myth, superstition, folklore, legend ... leprechauns, fairies demons, trolls, sprites, gods, angels, et al .. all left overs from ancient myths.
If most in USA believe in a god, why all the locks, burgler alarms, drugs, gangs, guns, violence ? Why do most church goes own guns?
