Regarding your (anal) obsession with blasphemy laws:

To better understand the basis of our laws, I would suggest that you read the following link: "Legislating in a Christian Nation".

"Christianity has clearly been the dominant religion of the populace for the past two centuries of our nationhood. The Founding Fathers intended that the government be influenced by the principles of Christianity. It is time to wrest control from the grasp of those who are dedicated to recreating American into a nation whose highest standards are the ideals of Secular Humanism. To maintain the influence of Christian principle on our law and culture, it is appropriate that Congress recognize the appropriate place of authority of Christianity in relationship to other religions as a philosophical force in the shaping of law.

Government usually generates legislation because of an experienced violation of person or property. The pain of violation is a reflection of the violation of a higher moral law. The legislature’s job is to engage in vigorous debate about the standards of proper behavior and enact law as a guide to excellent Godly personal and social behavior. It is the job of a righteous legislature to use Biblical moral standards as a guide to the creation of a secular code of conduct.

Do I think blasphemy laws should be (once again) legislated and enforced in our Christian founded nation?

Should a bunch of drag queens sodomizing an image of Jesus at a street fair be unlawful?

Should Larry David urinating on a Jesus painting in a 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' episode not be tolerated?

Should the following "art" (i.e. FILTH) be tolerated in a nation that was founded upon the Word of God?

"The target of the protest is a series of paintings by Felipe Baeza. One of them depicts a man with his pants down and a crucifix in his rectum. A Latin caption says, "The day I became a Catholic." Another painting shows rosaries with male genitalia and a third, a man with a halo and erection."

I would hope that you would know my answer by now.

No, I don't, because you refuse to answer this simple question directly with either a straightforward Affirmative, or a Negative. Just answer the question with a "YES", or a "NO" -- continue thereafter with any explanatory verbiage you like, but first say "Yes, or "No".

The reason that you refuse to answer the question, is that you know that you're caught in a Catch-22. If you say "Yes", you'll have to advocate Outlawing Judaism; if you say "No", then you lose any moral authority to legislate against other Non-Violent sins of lesser gravity than Blasphemy, either.

You can't, and won't, answer the question with a straightforward "YES" or "NO" -- because either way you go, you'll lose the argument.

You know it, and I know it. So I'm just going to keep pounding you with it, because your refusal to answer the question simply demonstrates what we both already know: that you've already lost the argument.
