No, I’m probably older than you are (but I’m flattered!). I find that most people will treat you with the amount of respect you give them, and I’m pretty outgoing and friendly. While I got the occasional odd question, and of course, they ALL tried to convert me, I don’t take that as disrespect. In fact, if you care about someone and you think they are in dire need of saving, you will try to save them. That’s how I saw it.

As for your point about the govt not getting into religions, they will and should when laws are being broken. Calling something a religion does not let you get away with breaking the law.

And, they have not arrested anyone yet.

Have a great day! I’m going to go take more pictures of dragonflies, they are everywhere here!

When the cops seize the children and tell their parents that they can not retrieve the children, that the parents can not leave with the children, you are essentially imprisoning the parent because that parent can not leave with the children.

In other words, it is sort of like a loose version of house arrest in that you may not be in jail, but then neither can you call yourself free to come and go.

It is a text book case of cops abusing the public.

IF they had found a crime and arrested the person or persons who committed the crime, OK.

But you can not put everyone under some sort of judicial restraint (not able to leave with the children, not able to mention Jeffords by name, threats that they must give up their religion or association with that church; all amount to some sort of judicial restraint or penalty.

It would be the same as if you as a Catholic were put under all sorts of restraints because you had a priest that was accused but not convicted of pedophilia.

You are supposed to penalize the person who committed the crime and leave every one else alone.
