I could do as you do, and just say, flippantly, that I don't owe anyone an explanation for anything:

But, I will do it, just this once. Why do I say you lack backbone?

Well, let's see, you told Steven you like to discuss religion:

But when Nihil said something you didn't like, you called him ugly names:

Message 11565765

Which makes you at best a hypocrite and at worst a liar, and a gutless coward. You invite discussion, and then when you get it, you get nasty.

Plus, you're too ignorant to understand that saying private prayers to oneself doesn't violate the separation of church and state, no matter how often it's explained to you:

You're too ignorant or lazy to read the Bible, so when questioned about it, all you can do is get rude:

Message 11623111

You call me "Tail-gunner Joe," but you're the one who claims to have information on other people ("disturbing reports"):

And, yes, it's true, you never directly argued in favor of prayer before football games. However, your posts make it clear that you thought it was a good thing because it was traditional, and that you thought that in the context the evangelism was understandable. The fact that you don't have the courage to stand by your convictions is another reason I say you lack backbone:

Message 11525124

Other than that, you're nasty. You called Joan "Joanie Baloney," you've called me "Tail-gunner Joe," see above, you've called Lather a MF:

and called Nihil a "blow-hole":

Message 11565765

What is so amazing about that last post is that Nihil has actually read the Bible, and knows more about it than just what he gleaned from going to church. You haven't, but that doesn't stop you from attacking him. Which makes you a very ignorant man. And it's a colossal waste of time to argue with you, so please don't post to me any more. Thank you.
