Oh, and that's why I was on the Honor Roll as a Numerical Analysis
Mathematics Major. Uh huh.
I notice you have nothing to say about the post where I reprinted the quotes
from our Founding Fathers, because you had all kinds of excuses for not
reading them yourself.
Like it or not, Jd, your version of "god" was not a part of the founding of
this country, and further leaders made a big mistake by breaching the
separation of Church and State.
There will likely be revolution before *anyone* puts up with what you are
proposing. Also, like it or not, not all children of Deity are Southern
Baptist by yourself - and the vast majority of us would rather die than fall
under the rule of *your* church.
It's truly a shame that you have not learned what Jesus really taught.
Before worrying about the splinter in MY eye, remove the log from your own.
You are also transgressing another one of his teachings, which is to treat
others as you would like to be treated.
You'd like to be left alone and not attacked for your beliefs, right? Then
I highly suggest you take your Christian teachings *to heart* and start
practicing them, and stop harassing your fellow human being for not
believing exactly as you do.
Finally, preserve what made this country what it is - the *separation* of
church and state. You like your freedoms, correct? You wouldn't HAVE them
under the rulership of any one religious tradition.
