[Lunatic Fringe]

We are the most maligned, made fun of, ridiculed people in this country

Oh, boohoo. How many times are you going to play the victim card in one thread?

That being said we know you hate Christians.

You don't know jack. I have already refuted this statement, and will not get into a discussion over how I feel about Christians.

So she said only Christians should be elected.

This is just another great example of Christians attempting to use government to enforce their dogma.

Nobody boo hooing here but you. I said I wasn't going allow you to shout us down.

"You don't know jack. I have already refuted this statement, and will not get into a discussion over how I feel about Christians."

I've not seen any repudiation of this statement. As a matter of fact you started this with your anti-Christian "dogma".

"This is just another great example of Christians attempting to use government to enforce their dogma."

Again I see no repudiation of the facts presented, just more of you anti-Christian bias, and paranoia.

Jump in and eat the meat of my assertions, don't pick at the parsley on the side of the plate.

This is just another great example of Christians attempting to use government to enforce their dogma.

While I persoanlly have no opposition to decent non-Christians serving in our government, I would like to ask: What did the Founders have to say about this issue? Can you quote them?

[Mr. Silverback]

My assaults are not on Christians, it is on their inability to restrain themselves from imposing their beliefs on the rest of us.

This is just another great example of Christians attempting to use government to enforce their dogma.

I'd like to hear all about this. Please enlighten me, and be sure to talk specifics, not generalities. Christians comprise the vast majority of government officials in virtually every jurisdiction in the country, so you should have a million stories about Christian government officials imposing their religion on the rest of the people. Especially, please let me know about anyone who's been forced to attend Christian worship services or forced to otherwise worship Christ, or any atheists or members of non-Christian religions who've had to tithe out of their income to a local church.

Where has the persecution happened? Who were the victims? Who were the perpetrators? Please tell me so I can stand up against this unconstitutional scourge of theocracy.

"This is just another great example of Christians attempting to use government to enforce their dogma."

As opposed to secularists enforcing their's.

Someone's values are always being imposed. Of course the situation was much easier and less confusing when there was a value concensus, which today there isn't and thus is precisely the reason public education should be ended.
