It is a good example of why you cannot negotiate with the Left.

Gee, I guess Martin Luther King Day would have to be cancelled. A federal holiday for a Christian minister, who used the moral authority of his religion to change society? That must drive the libs nuts.

They want to cite Scripture without the context of what it means as a way of "beating" us here...

Still more idiocy from the America hating, God hating left. Is anyone surprised? Since the left is controlled by the Sodomites, who hate God, it's not surprising at all.

Oh well, when judgement is handed down, then they will realize the error of their ways. But then it will be too late for them.

You're welcome! I've been lurking around DU since election night. It's high comedy.

Regarding DUers use of Scripture, a very common refrain there is that evangelicals don't really follow Jesus' teachings because they're mean and intolerant. The DUers cite warm and fuzzy passages about love and forgiviness, but they ignore Jesus' clear claims of divinity and exclusivity as a means of access to God.

Abortion on demand and "gay marriage" are more important to much of the left than any religion. They view it is an obstacle at best.

Sad.

I don't know how I'd get through my day without knowing I'm not alone.

I don't want to force my religion on anyone.

but I want some tolerance too.

:)

"one couldn't, for example, get away with holding an impromptu service using a bullhorn in the middle of a busy intersection or in an expensive neighborhood."


And hence, 1 couldn't get away w/*any* "free speech" using a bullhorn in an intersection. Can any1 say, "spoiled-brat ignorant college-kid protest marches"? By this reasoning, we could do away w/all "free speech" cuz your group might think of holding a convention in an intersection.

So good, I'm glad you said it twice.

You might want to make sure you're on Pj's DUmmie FUnnies ping list, if you're not already.

As for this thread - democracy and rights are only for those who aren't Republicans. After all, we're the evil ones who want to take over the world and steal away everyone's rights...

Jesus said His followers would be hated because the world hates Him.

Man these people are like a self fulfilling prophesy.
Have you ever seen one of those optical illusions that if you squint real hard you can see the 3-d image appear on the page? The same applies to these evil people. If you squint real hard you can see the people who will fall for the Antichrist's lies. I can clearly see these people running the centers where the mark of the beast will be applied. You can almost see their desire to persecute, and execute Christians.
In some sense it makes me sad. In other ways at peace as it proves the Scriptures coming to life before our very eyes. At least those who have eyes to see.
"Father forgive them, for they know not what they do."
The end draws ever nearer.

At first I thought the DUer who started this thread was merely suggesting something audacious to stir up some spirited discussion. But as I read on I concluded that she honestly believes that people of faith must be "dealt" with.

Storm clouds gather on the horizon.
I prepare myself for the coming deluge everyday.
