RE: YES, I'M A BAD AMERICAN
"A religious debate is not possible, it will always end in a personal attack no matter how hard you try not too. I am guided by the Holy Bible and many others by other religions or non belief. I am glad they have that choice. As a Christian I offer it with no strings attached. But if you are not careful, other religions are not so generous. Its their way or the highway. And by highway I mean it ain't too good. Most Christians live as Jesus taught, live and let live. If we must have a compass, at least with Christians you are not forced to believe as we do. You can live as you see fit."
I would very much like to agree with you. I respect everything you said. However from this topic it is very clear that not everybody thinks as you do. As you can see there are many who want prayer in schools, bans on pornography, and laws against being homosexual. If we tell people they can't be homosexual or watch porn, or have abortions, how can they live as they see fit?
