Just yesterday we were notified by the local historical society that we must relocate our Bible study/prayer time off of county property because it was "religious." R: If the historical society is a public body and it allows other (non-religious) groups to use the space for their meetings, it cannot exclude you from the space because you are "religious."

Actually, it's likely that the reason the study group is being asked to relocate is to avoid allowing other non-religious groups use the meeting area.

May the Lord Jesus Christ bless you and all of us on FreeRepublic this Christmas season. May He watch over all of us and guide us as we make our stand over the next few years for His name.

How does Matthew end? Something like: Go ye into all the world and preach the good news to every creature?

This cannot be done in a closet.

Back to DU, freeeee.

DU is where the Bill of Rights is defended? Funny, I thought that was what this place was about.

Anyway, why don't you get back with me when you have something intelligent to say.

These wouldn't be the ones who happen to commit all those violent crimes I listed, would they?

No, I'm talking about the people in the article.

This is just like the big lie lefties tell about drug offenders

That is off topic. If you want to discuss the WoD, I'll be glad to in an appropriate thread. This thread is about free speech and free assembly.

can you give us a SPECIFIC EXAMPLE of a protester who had no prior record, did not engage in any violent act, did not resist arrest, did not urinate or defecate in the middle of the street, etc., who spent more time in jail than most convicted murderers?

I suppose after their trial I could use the protesters in the article, but I hope I won't be able to.

yet somehow the modern lefty protester never absorbed this message. To this nano-second, they don't understand how dearly their willingly and gleefully honed public image as half-naked, drug-addled, violent perverts and lunatics has cost them in the voting booth -- especially over the last 4 years.

Agreed. The bad press by their bad apples gives them nothing but bad press and causes their message to be lost or associated with violence.

you've never seen anything of the kind at Democratic Underground or MoveOn.Org or Michael Moore's website? Please! Multiply the worst of what you find here by a hundred and that's your typical lefty web forum.

Yes I have. I think its disgraceful and hypocritical. And VERY shameful that posters here behave the same way. We're supposed to be better than that.

Well, here's a good start:

If someone here says something you don't like, attempt to address the issue using logic and reason instead of mindless invectives. You'd be amazed at the improvement.

Apparently we're talking past each other. I was talking specifically about leftist protesters, apparently you are limiting these comments only to the Christian protesters in this particular case?

Yet somehow the modern lefty protester never absorbed this message. To this nano-second, they don't understand how dearly their willingly and gleefully honed public image as half-naked, drug-addled, violent perverts and lunatics has cost them in the voting booth -- especially over the last 4 years.

Agreed. The bad press by their bad apples gives them nothing but bad press and causes their message to be lost or associated with violence.

Maybe their message wouldn't be lost and they wouldn't be so closely associated with these whack-jobs if they didn't make such an effort to BE associated with them -- by so publicly, consistently, and zealously defending them like ambulance chasers and portraying them as helpless victims in public.

Yes I have. I think its disgraceful and hypocritical. And VERY shameful that posters here behave the same way. We're supposed to be better than that.

By and large we ARE better than that, A LOT better. If you get thousands of people of any stripe together, it is unrealistic to say the very least to expect that there won't be some who won't be cyber-bomb throwers.

The difference is that in HERE, there are plenty of people like you and me who will tell them to knock it off. At DU and MoveOn and other places, their hatred of people like us is so fanatical that such comments about us are not frowned upon but egged on with a lynch-mob mentality. We're the evil ones so there is nothing bad that shouldn't happen to us.

To be honest, I interpreted your responses of not only defending Kinsey; but of defending the actions he took.

I sure didn't take it that way and I'm sure that most reasonable people didn't either. Its never wrong to try to get the full story rather than just going off half cocked.

If a person does something wrong, then accuse them only of those things and don't make things up to make it sound more sensational. Bluegrass asked reasonable questions: there is a big difference between studying an activity and endorsing it. Bluegrass was only trying to figure out if Kinsley actually participated in the acts. By Jeremiah's logic, Christian researchers that study abortion are guilty of endorsing abortion simply because they researched the subject.

The problem here is that if anyone takes the time (say a half an hour) to read up on Kinsey (not articles by his followers but by those who have done research on him and his methods) will come to the inescapable conclusion that Kinsey is a fraudulent "scientist", a pervert, and a criminal by knowingly aiding and abetting crimes against children.

I haven't been to this thread since yesterday, but I put up a link for Bluegrass C. to read what Dr. Judith Reisman, who has written two books about Kinsey, has to say about him. If anyone wants to know the truth about him, the truth is there for all the world to see. If someone still thinks Kinsey was anything other than a digusting criminal, or doesn't want to inform themselves, words can't say what kind of mentality they have.
