My little church group...lets see, one must be either blind of have zero reading comprehension not to understand after, what, perhaps being specifically informed 4 times that I have NO CHURCH, NO RELIGION, so obvious to most I would not have my own "little church group". The true wonder might be how many other people's heads have exploded "debating" with a person with a position this rabid? I know I would have to make a special trip to the hardware store to supplement my dwindling supply of duct tape for many more of these mostly inane exchanges.You're asking for public taxpayer funding to fund a christian plaque, so that you could put it in a public place. No, I will not be paying for you. If your little church group wants to make a plaque, pay for it yourself and hang it up in your church. Problem solved.
Um, this is a democracy... you, little ol anti-faith zealot or not, cannot tell the rest of us what we will and will not do with our local tax dollars. So shuuuu, be off with you... I think the North Koreans would wave you on over if you really wanted to go somewhere your views might have a cozy little home.
Never asked for it, the city council voted on it then offered it up. Decided in a purely democratic fashion. You are going to go against the people and their will, you are going against the Constitution? Vote them out if you do not like their positions... recall them, thats how we do it here. Who the heck would one really have oneself pumped up to believe onself to be to think one can determine anything for everybody else in the nation...? King, Czar...Premier? Maybe should consider how to paca lil more of the rational/factual in order to have more reasonable debate positions.Seriously? You literally just asked for my money to put up a plaque. Your memory isn't very good, is it?
So you agree with our rights to remove evolutionary origins from being taught in our public K-12 schools? Again, I will not deign to explain to you, as one would have to be either too dense or too obstinate to not to already understand the fact that the First Amendment is about the establishment of a State [national] church.It is about the money, and it's about the fact that the government should not be pushing one religion over the other. We live in a republic, where even the minorities have rights, and they have a right to a secular government.
Yeah, that's it. And that would make you one of those fewer OTHER TYPEs, lost in your cuddly "descended from rocks and gases" folk... while some, others perhaps, might consider that to be seemingly distinctly plausible...nahhh...LOL, you're one of THOSE people! Of course you are, I should've already guessed it. Somehow science is a religion now, so your religion feels excluded.
I get it, over your head. Seems you like to ignore that which you do not like to answer. It's okay, perhaps some rock/gaseous DNA might not be equal to other rock/gaseous DNA, who would've ever guessed, huh...ha ha ha...This is literally too stupid to answer.
Yes King Rabid...whatever you say King Rabid. Oh, and did I hear you say burn all copies of the Constitution, too? And...and....build big statues of Joe, that too? See, I knew it.All I hear here is whining, but I'll repeat it anyway. No, I will not pay for your religious BS. If your church needs money take up a tide or something, you're not dipping into taxpayer funds to inserting yourself into publicly owned buildings.
Blah blah blah... more of the same dribble. Show me that in the Constitution. Besides, your attention to detail is shown lacking once again. A local government is not the state government. I am telling ya, there really are poly sci 101 courses, I think for free, on the internet even.I don't really care what your religion is, or even if you have one. No religion has a right to take taxpayer funding and force it on the populace. The constitution applies to the states, not just the federal government. It is the federal government's job to enforce the constitution. You have a right to fair and speedy trial, and your state does not have a right to curtail that. A state government does not have the right constitutionally to support one religion over the other, plain and simple.
I think you will find the ones in bed with atheism worse. Stalinist [ high five Joe ]Soviet Union, Red China, North Korea... I think the numbers are quite compelling... at least to those that willing to use their god given brains ... or, to be PC, perhaps those with the better rock/gaseous DNA...As I've stated before, go take a look around and find the countries that have governments in bed with religion. Personally I find them to be pretty terrible places, but hey, maybe you'll find them delightful
