your intellectual shortcomings
You can fall in line with the rest of the liberals here when they have no arguments. Just fall in and call names and insult.

So what? They're both politicians and probably have the IQ and intellectual capacity of slime mold.

I understood your remark. It't the old one about how if people don't like it here, they should pack up and leave. Before I decided to bother replying to your inane post in the first place, I checked a few of your other posts. You're the one who simply puffs up his feathers, shits, and has nothing to say. At any given instant there are considerably more assholes than mouths in the universe.

Evolution like gravity is an observable fact.
No, it's not. The one piece of evolution that people claim to have observed is viruses or bacteria mutating into other viruses, or the changing color of moths. But with all these 'observations' no one has yet been able to see one form of life evolve to become a different species. And that's what the THEORY of evolution is about, speciation.

I really get tired of repeating this here.
And I really get tired of being misquoted. In your quotation of me I didn't say evolution was not fact, though in my opinion it is, I said that it is being taught too much like fact in our schools. Danny The stupidity of others amazes me!

No you didn't. So please don't expend any more efforts.

Secularism is nothing more than another philosophical world view that should be competing openly with others, such as religion, with no help from government.
I guess I don't see government "promoting" secularism. That a much more secular society now exists and is exerting its rights via challenges to the old "it's chrisitianity so it's ok for government to promote that as long as it doesn't NAME a single branch" way of thinking. Christians see the fact that they're losing what they never should have had as the government persecuting them. wrote:
The left worships the "nonestablishment clause" but completely ignores the "free exercise thereof" clause.
The only left wingers who might expose this are as far to the left as Pat Robertson and his right wingers are to the right. There are no serious widespread movements to quell religion in this country. Just movements to get the government out of the religion business. No one is PREVENTED from praying in public schools. Only the school is prevented from mandating and leading group prayers. If an individual wants to sit there and quietly pray, no one is going to stop it. If he wants to start shouting it and distrupt the class, then he should get the same treatment as anyone shouting about anything and disrupting the class. And don't tell me that school children can just say no when the school tells them to pray. The governent has no business forcing anyone to declare their allegiance to any religion. And children who decide to opt out will be sitting ducks for their religious classmates to ridicule and harrass.

Have you been out of the country? Yes they are...if they are Christians. They can't group or form a Christian club even if it isn't school sponsored.

That's bull, but I guess Pat Robertson uses myths like that to whip up the faithful. And if it were true, maybe they should take the advice you gave the scientists....move to Iran? I hear they love religion in schools there. At any given instant there are considerably more assholes than mouths in the universe.

It's actually true. If Christians exited the US the freedoms enjoyed would come swiftly to a halt. The basis of freedom in the US are grounded in Christianity. 'Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle' and 'endowed by their Creator' makes that too clear.

Most churches just seem to be an outlet for the preacher to try to control people. Most of them envision America turning into a theocracy, much like Iran, only with Christianity being the state religion. I am against most organized religion, though I am not an athiest. I hate their whole idea of "hell". They try to terrorize people with it. It is always "you are going to hell if you read that version of the bible", or "you better get saved or you are going to hell". Then, there are some of them that believe in the "rapture". The rapture is an idea that they have that any second, they could literally vanish and go to heaven, then everyone else would have no chance to ever get saved. I guess we all better get ready to burn with the devil in the lake of fire for eternity. :rolleyes: :zzz:
