Many creatures need to be exorcised, of which he seems to be a prime example.
A Pentacle does not AUTOMATICALLY mean Satanic. Depends how it’s oriented.
Point down, possibly Satanic. Point up, likely Pagan of some variety, Druid or Wiccan most likely.
Or just wearing it to outrage Christians, HIGHLY likely. . .
I simply explained the beliefs....and I like the fact that you don’t have to believe it if you wish. Washington did say that our liberties could only be supported by the “twin props” that are Religion and Morality(notions of which were shared by 90 per cent of the population at the time of his writing of this in the Federalist papers). So any personal freedom of expression and morality that is different from mine, that you might claim to enjoy is overshadowed by the religious consensus in which your freedoms were formed.
Believe or don’t believe if you have a mind to, but it was a grace minded Christian consensus that gave you your freedoms. Kind of chaps you to think about that, doesn’t it?
After all, doesn’t the Bible say...”Where the Spirit of Lord is, there is liberty?”
Don’t tell me that...go out , shake your fist if you will at God and ask him that. How about reporting me and the 90 per cent of Freepers who believe in God to a senate committee for having a belief that God is the ultimate Monarch and judge? You either believe it or you don’t. Let your insinuations fall on your own head...every soul will stand before God...he is the judge!
Not in the slightest. I freely acknowledge that the Founding Fathers were (largely) Christian, and that they produced a system of government which has resulted in more freedom than any before or since.
As Jefferson said, “But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods or no God. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.”
He should be caught on the street and beaten severely enough to need hospitalization. Way past time we brought these @$$holes a taste of their own medicine.
Why in the world would I shake my fist and demand answers from something in which I have no belief? That would be highly irrational, to say the least.
How about reporting me and the 90 per cent of Freepers who believe in God to a senate committee for having a belief that God is the ultimate Monarch and judge?
Report you for enjoying freedoms that I fully support?
“I wholly disagree with what you say and will contend to the death for your right to say it.”. —-Voltaire (posisibly attributed to him inaccurately)
Why was ‘he’ even there, it’s not like he will ever impregnate a woman, the anus is not a reproductive organ.
Irrational in front of what audience? Is there supratemporal source that can be scientifically verified as to the proper definition as to what is to be considered “rational” or “irrational”? A muslim in an other land might consider your beliefs “irrational” as an atheist and have you stoned.
No.... better far for you to exist in a country in which its freedoms were birthed during a time in which a 90 per cent Judeo-Christian consensus existed, the shadow of which protects your freedoms in this day. I like atheists...you are all ...SOOOOO KEEEYUUUTE! I like you all just where we can watch you closely! We promise not to bite!
Because deep down it’s about them hating God.
Short answer? Yes.
Jesus is the only way, the truth the light. Everything else winds up in the same place. The end result is the same.
It was a bit different earlier in Europe, mind you. As late as the 17th Century there people being executed for being atheists.
