Maybe Bush not quite as "faith-based" as he would have us think?

    Not surprisingly, because you didn't have a REAL answer, you turned things around again. Nice job. Remind me never to ask you for directions. You'd likely give instructions so convoluted that you'd have a bus load of children driving through a muck pit 20 miles out of the way.

    You should rephrase that: I didn't give you and Ace the answer you WANT TO HEAR.
    Huge difference.

    I like how Hondo never really got around to responding to my point.
    Fundamentalists Christians have recently killed their fellow Americans, who didn't agree with their belief. Killing them is a funny way of annoying them but I guess blowing up abortion clinics and shooting the doctors who work there is okeydokey.
    Is that OK with you Hondo? Is it OK to break "Thou shalt not kill" if it is someone doing something you don't agree with?

    Chris L, defeated on the Plains of Saddam, tries his hand over here.

    Hondo, the fundamentalist loony tune Christians are doing more than "annoying" us. They're trying to hijack North American culture and politics. And they are dangereous.

    And I never equated anything with anything. You're the one trick pony who keeps bleating on and on about Islam. As if Christians were never responsible for mayhem and murder.

    Of course I've said that killing abortion doctors if bad. Those found guilty should be locked away for life.
    But they've got a loooonnnggggg way to go to catch up with the Muslim extremist body count. And cite, please the last abortion clinic bombing. Might have been 1998 or so.

    Sorry. Not buying. You're gonna need to add a vow of silence onto that chastity thing now.

    Yeah...we're so good at hijacking the culture that my daughter can see bare asses at 10 p.m. on network TV, buy a CD with explicit lyrics at Wal-Mart and her high school chorus is forbidden from singing a traditional Christmas carol at the "Winter Musical Festival." The latter issue really happened, in case you want to dispute it.

    And we're so dangerous that pop culture such as music, TV, movies, etc. has to worry about being politically correct on any issue but this: you can bash Christians, make fun of them, belittle them, riducule them, any time you want, with no repurcussions.
     
  9. JR - you are the one who brought up my name here. Are you so senile that you forgot?

    Last month, in Des Moines, but not technically correct. Guy rammed his car into the building, then set his car on fire to burn the clinic down. But it turns it was actually just a regular ol' women's health center and they didn't perform abortions there.
    Don't worry, I'll find more.

    Hondo, in my son's school, Christians share the same classrooms with Sikhs, Muslims, Jews and probably atheists. Why should they be forced to sit through a Christian festival at school?

    Celebrate Christmas with your family and friends. But don't foist it on those who aren't Christians. (BTW, most enlightened jurisdictions don't have Christmas Carols at their holiday concerts).

    And if your daughter is old enough to stay up until 10:00 p.m., then a few bare asses won't hurt her.

    I'm very, very glad that I'm raising my daughter and not you.
