Are you sure you are posting at the correct website?

Wow, someone who has been here for a few months is asking me if the site I've been posting at for 5 years plus is correct? Yes, I know where I am.

Even before I became a FReeper, I have witnessed only the 'peace' people using children and shoving them out the door to protests.

Yes. I have a huge problem with that too. Children shouldn't be exploited for political purposes.

When children are raised in a home based on Faith, and are taught values and morals - the response Joshua displyed is natural.

I agree that having those feelings is natural. I don't believe that him showing up at the site and getting arrested is, though. I believe that his parents encouraged him to do so by taking him there and telling him that his actions were like those of Jesus Christ. I have a problem with parents using a 10-yr-old to make a political point. Even a point that I agree with.

So let me ask you again - what if this child was arrested protesting the Iraq war? Would you still be as supportive of a child protesting and being arrested in this way? Would you still believe that this child came to the conclusion he did completely on his own as you believe Joshua did?

I quote your eloquent post# 515 found here:

Big church halts support of ministries - Stone Mountain provides anti-Christian commentary

The bible was a book written by a bunch of men back in the day. Jesus was a man who lived and died back in the day. I understand that a lot of people believe that there is more significant meaning to both, but I personally don't happen to believe that there is.

I revise my earlier statement to you which assumed you possessing better character... Your comments on this thread are not politically based -they are based in anti-Christian bigotry as are the majority of your postings on any topic that provides you even the most obtuse opportunity to serve up your anti-Christian slant...

You no longer garner my assumed respect nor, in my opinion, any credibility on any religious subject as you are tainted -your intent evil...
