That's your view - I am in NO way trying to convince you that there
IS a
creator - YOU on the other hand are WILDLY trying to convince ME that MY
beliefs are STUPID and need to be supressed. YOU are the one HYSTERICAL
about a group of kids singing a Christmas carol.
You don't know anything about what I'm hysterical about and caroling would
make no sense as a trigger for hysteria. If I'm worried or offended by
something I have my reasons which you know nothing of and it's also none
of
your business at this time, except I am somewhat put off by your
irrational
words. this type of language indicates you are a possible dangerous threat
to people you don't even know.
Oh get serious. I threaten nobody. If you feel that you are in danger
because of some Christmas Carols being sung, then you are the one who is
dangerous, I'd rank you something akin to a General who orders a nuclear
strike because a fly landed on his nose. I don't even care what your reasons
are for being so offended as a bunch of kids singing Christmas Carols in a
public park that you feel that you must act to prevent it. It is a public
park, Christian kids are part of the public.
Well, maybe in your lexicon they are not.
I could care LESS about what you believe or don't believe . . . My
ONLY
interest is when you start DEMANDING that I curtain MY beliefs OR ELSE!
Then I resist and You don't like it. TOUGH *****! You are gonna start
seeing
LOTS more people like me. Better make the adjustment. People willing to
speak back to the BULLYING and LAWSUITS to suppress us.
You seem to be one to try to suppress others or worse.The argument that
everything had a Creator because it's too complicated, is
about as reasonable as saying that it couldn't have been created since
it's
too complicated.
Oh Golly - I want to "TOTALLY SUPPRESS" you or even do harm because I
believe that some kids should be able to sing Christmas Carols at a school
function or in the case in point, a public park. I'm not arguing to you
that there is a creator at all. As I said - I couldn't care less what you
do or don't believe in, my only concern is my freedom and those like me who
share a belief in that Creator. YOU on the other hand wish me NOT to be able
to have that belief apparently. I'm not forcing you to do or not do
anything. I guess to make it clear what *I* am saying is this; that a group
of Christian kids should be able to go to a public park and sing Christmas
carols if they wish, fortunately not YET to we ban activities like that from
public places. It is, in my opinion sad that we argue that homosexuals
should have the right to engage openly in sexual acts at that park because
it is a "public park" and it's their "right" to do so, yet, a group of
children must be banned from singing Christmas s carols in that park because
a tiny minority find it offensive, and the park is huge with hundreds of
acres, yet YOU feel that you shouldf walk over to where the children are, be
offended and prevent them from singing." The REAL agenda here, bub, is VERY
apparent. You sound very much like a man who would like to use the police
powers of the state to abolish Christianity if not all religious beliefs.
Why am *I* offended at your militancy? I just got my wife out of a
totalitarian police state that executed thousands of priests and for decades
padlocked the churches. Oh I know people like you. You are not worried about
your own rights at all but tasking them from others. I know you! I've seen
you!
It's about like saying that a super flea created a dog. Then
the good fleas go to a great dog in the sky, while the bad unbelieving
fleas
are scratched off into a super rug to be forever hungry. If you think dogs
weren't created by a Great Flea then you are an atheist flea.
I am not going to try to reason with somebody of such a limited
intellect. I certainly would never dream of wasting my time tying to
convince you that there IS a God. That would take vastly more intelligence
than you obviously possess. You have trouble believing what is in front of
you much less anything more complex than
a twinkie. Belief in God require the ability for not only abstract
reasoning, but the ability to accept the possibility of things we can't
prove with a sliderule.
