I how strongly feel about my privacy, particularly about religious matters.
_______________________________________

Yes, well, in my religion, my Book of instructions, called The Holy Bible, tells me to speak out about what i believe...

Having brought the apostles, they made them appear before the Sanhedrin to be questioned by the high priest.”We gave you strict orders not to teach in this name,” he said. “Yet you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching and are determined to make us guilty of this man’s blood.”Peter and the other apostles replied: “We must obey God rather than men! Acts 5:27-29

Am I now trying to win the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ. Galations 1:10

“Now fear the LORD and serve him with all faithfulness. Throw away the gods your forefathers worshiped beyond the River and in Egypt, and serve the LORD. But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD.” Joshua 24:14, 15

It is funny how people will say they are conservative but promote actions and activities that are anything but. Admittedly the First Amendment applies to governmental action, but I would think one would acknowledge the wisdom of the intent of that Amendment. I would greatly resent being forced to endure someone preaching Islam to me, particularly with regard to jihad and women’s rights. A little consistency goes a long way in enhancing one’s credibilty.
