They prayed that all Americans would accept Jesus into their lives.


And here's me thinking Americans know their country is built upon "freedom"..

I was also under the assumption that Jesus was tortured in Jerusalem.. And I always assumed the bible was based in Jerusalem.. not America..


Presence is a curious thing, if you think you need to prove it... you probably never had it in the first place.

I wonder what highway they would have picked if the verse was numbered differently.

Meh, they're not hurting anyone. Let them do what they want.

Maybe you should go read again. Sure they are not hurting anyone but they are shoving their damn morals into the throats of the adult business owners in the area.

If I owned an adult business and some religious nut cases went around outside praying for the "deliverance of the lost souls" in the area, I would be really pissed.

Muslims generally tend to take action physically which may or may not lead to riots, demonstrations, and violence.

Christians are more dangerous as, like Yuri, they aim for your mind with false beliefs. Once you loose your mind, you are also physically crippled to do anything.

This is why fighting militant Muslims is a lot easier than fighting fanatical Christians. With militant Muslims, you just kill them when they are coming for you. With fanatical Christians, you have to argue with enormous skill and knowledge patiently to disprove them and their man-written fairy tale book with which they take pleasure in binding themselves to all the days of their worthless lives.

Religion is like an incurable disease. Once you catch it, you can't get rid of it, and you try to spread it to other people.

If they're on their property, then the authorities can have them removed. If they're not, and they're allowed to protest in the area. Theres little anyone can do about it. That's the same problem we had with the war protesters a few years ago. As for your fairy tale statement: Please respect the fact that some of us are Christians. I'm not asking you to believe what I do, but please don't let your ethnocentrism generalize something neither of us truly understand. It comes across like you hate all Christians.

If you cared to read what I wrote with your head where it should have been, you would realize that I was specifically referring to "fanatical Christians."

So, no bullshit accusations of "generalizations" please.

You can't disprove a fanatical Christian. They have excuses for everything you throw at them. And if they don't, they say that you are destined to hell.

Trust me, I know, I have dealt with one before. Huh

Very nice, correcting people with underlying ad-hominem is surely the best way to have a civil conversation. If you didn't want the other side of the arguement, just say so in the thread title. Have fun in this thread debating with yourself. Cheers Thumbs Up

I did not expect any serious argument to come out of this thread; hence my simple thread title and 2 news links. Just wanted to let people know.

I could sympathize with you on your argument about fanatical Christians, but you DO NOT limit yourself to them like you say you do... you blatantly and outright attack ALL Christians in your statement...

Quote:

their man-written fairy tale book


Insulting the book which an entire religion follows only restricts the insult to the fanatical bunch... right...
