You know there was an "Unpopular faith" that a man claiming to be of G-d named Jim Jones was practicing in the late 70's, we sat back and did nothing and hundreds of people drank cyanide and died, oh well they did it in the name of religious freedom, I guess another unpopular faith
Satanists who have animal sacrafices stealing people's pets in the name of there G-d is also okay with you.

Ahhh but Jim JOnes and his group tried to assassinate a U.S. COngressman, and when they knew they were in deep doo-doo, they offed themselves. And, no one here is advocating the breaking of laws, such as a Satanist would be doing if they stole someone's pet and killed it.

I have said repeatedly that we are free to worship as we please in this country, provided we adhere to our nations' laws...

There was another unpopular man of God who incited the population, defied civil authority and threatened the orthodoxy. He was judged most harshly by the likes of you and executed. I am of course referring to Jesus.

I am not equating Jim Jones to Jesus, but I am asserting that you are not here to judge, but to be judged.
