You, too, have chosen to attack the salad and ignore the steak. Here it is again.

Our Rights as enumerated in our Constitution are inalienable—-that is, cannot be taken from us—-because, as our founders wrote, they are granted to us by God the Creator Himself.

What, praytell, becomes of those "Rights" once God is forbidden His rightful place... or even any place... in our society or Government?

"You, too, have chosen to attack the salad and ignore the steak."


Wow - I like this phrase! Mind if I use it elsewhere?

Na. I think you've somewhat misunderstood my remark. To place allegiance to this nation founded upon the belief that God, the Creator, is the Giver of freedom is something that first, has to belong in the heart. It's true, the knowledge of God is the beginning of wisdom.

First, our duty is to render to God that which is His - our allegiance, hope, and trust. As a consequence of rendering to God, there comes the obligation to publicly be a faithful servant by resisting evil according to God's precepts and statutes.

I wasn't disagreeing with your perspective - just trying to relate the task begins from within.

Nothing.

It is presumptuous (and clearly irreligious, and moronic) in the extreme to think that you or anyone else can make God (and his given rights) disappear because you get in my face about it.

I understand the Taliban are still recruiting. Good luck.

Where did you get this idea? Can you tell me where in the Bible it states that people shall have the right to due process?
