A) Republicans who walk out on an Islamic prayer should be forced to resign, severely punished by Republican leadership, and/or forced out of the GOP.

No. What I said is that any elected official who refuses to exemplify the Constitutional principles of neutrality with respect to religion ought to resign.

B) Islam is morally equal to Christianity.

Wrong again. What I said is that the government is to be neutral with respect to religion.

C) Polygamy is a social good.

What I SAID was, that you cannot make a link between plural marriage and social depravity, as the Old Testament patriarchs and the Latter-Day Saints in the Nineteenth Century exemplified.

D) Everyone who disagrees with you is a bigot.

No. Anyone who acts with bigotry is a bigot. My opinion has nothing to do with it.

Actually, you can replace all your points above with this one: It is pointless to try to summarize the points of argument of someone when you don't even bother to read what they write in the first place.

Once again. I've read every word you've written on this thread, and I understand what you wrote perfectly.

By the way, you should try reading the Constitution again.

It simply prohibits Congress from making any laws establishing a state religion.

All that other crud has been invented from whole clothe by liberals who despise Christianity.
