I've seen that kind of stretch before

The stretch is in comparing any government that owes its roots to Judeo Christian principle with an Islamic dictatorship.

I'm not even going to dignify that kind of thing. If you want to address real points, I'd be happy to.

In other words, you cannot cite me a law that does not have, or purport to have, some moral foundation to it, speeding included.

Cordially,

I don't need you to say "in other words". My words were very understandable.

Since I never did that, it wasn't a stretch by me.

Now go sell that nonsenical speeding laws are moralist laws to someone who actually wants to chase his tail.

You want to talk about morality in government? Let's, but that other BS is off the table.

As an unabashed Christian, I don't concede anything in these discussions.

Putting government in charge of morality is like putting pedophiles in charge of children.
