I'm kind of 50/50 here. I do believe that there should be a separation of church and state and I don't think that it is right to fire a man because he mistook the identity of a couple of people (I'll be he regrets that for the rest of his life). But.... making a mockery of any church is rediculous. Having armed guards does kind of seem like overkill, but I can't think of many ways to keep people off of private property.
I am not anti religion. I grew up in a Roman Catholic house. However, my parents decided on their own not to baptize me. They were nice enough to let me decide what religion I wanted when I was old enough to make the decision on my own. Today I conceder myself to be a Buddhist/Atheist. Many Catholics today have been forced into the religion. Almost all my cousins have been forced in (Sunday school, first communion, conformation). By forcing kids into something they do not fully understand, can that not be considered a Catholic militant agenda? A few years ago my state abolished the "blue law", the banning of alcohol sales on Sunday.... Gee I wonder what great religion actually had that law put into place to begin with. :rolleyes: IMO, gays are nothing more then a 21st century witch hunt to Christianity.
I thought church doors were open to anyone who wanted to come in, well thats how it used to be. Since when did religious people start to want to turn people away because of their sins? This huge Christian movement is doing nothing but giving the Father a bad name. We are to embrace and except everyone regardless of their sins. I am starting to believe most Christians are fake, and are not true followers of Christ. Christ never preached discrimination ever in his short life here on earth. So where do these so called Christians have the right to discriminate? Stop letting the church, and other men direct your faith in the Father, and try to have a relationship with him through your own heart. Its easy to preach religious propaganda, and condemn everyone who has the slightest difference in faith. I challenge all religious people to try and have a relationship with the Father from inside their hearts, and not through a church!!
Personally I applaud the actions of said "church." I believe that all christian establishments should be sabotaged and corrupted because I am an evil west-coast liberal who hates freedom and wants everyone to go against the word of the infallible, almighty god, who, by the way, exists 100% and that is a FACT. Notice how I don't capitalize god because I am such a liberal. In fact, not only am I a liberal (HIDE YOUR CHILDREN OR I'LL MAKE THEM GAY) but I am a muslim terrorist with a slight inclination for satanic worship. I run through churches naked holding hands with men and screaming "ABORTIONS FOR EVERYONE!"
WorldNetDaily speaks the truth! In no way are any of their articles biased or exaggerated! They are all 100% factual and in no way are they written and supported by those who think that their way of life is the only way of life and expect to see their values reflected by everyone (including those who do not live by the same standards or belief systems). Yay! Go equality!
It's not morals they're trying to ram down those altarboys throats. All church assets should simply be seized and used for some useful purpose.Quote:

They went into a Christian church,because they knew that Christians would not harm them.
Have a good one ...
So you're saying that if it were Muslims, that they would have resulted to a violent outburst? First of all, the "truth" of this article is twisted and is not the exact story, and this story is filled with subjective information which is just the opinions of random unnamed people. Second, just because someone is a Muslim does not mean that they are looking to "join the jihad" and become martyrs. Radical muslims and REAL muslims are much different. Its like saying that fundamentalist christians and catholics are the same; it is simply false.Quote:

I love this tactic. Compare Xian intolerance to extremist Muslim intolerance, and since the Muslims have a more physically dangerous version of intolerance, that makes Xian intolerance A-OK. That's akin to me saying "That guy killed 5 people, I've only killed 3, so that means I'm a better person than he is." They might be the better person, but that doesn't make them good in the least. As well, we don't say that killing 3 people is alright because comparatively, it's better than killing 5.Quote:
