BK, Well since your huge ego convinces you that you have seen it all, and know it all,and done it all, it appears to me that, even, trying to enter into a discussion with you is total futility. You have come on to this thread for no other reason, than to try and push our buttons, and agitate. It didn't take you long to realize that I am one of those that gets agitated rather easily, so you have tried to push the buttons a little harder. Since any reasonable statement is no accepted by you as legitimate discussion, you waste our time. TD

BadKarma,
"While I would fight to the death to preserve your right to believe and live as you choose, it has been my experiience that the majority of christains would not show me the same kindness."

Interesting that you point this out since freedom (in the U.S.) has traditionally been fought for by Chrisitians... being the majority of the armed forces. In fact as you so elequently pointed out, we LOVE to fight for freedom... and if you look at history you will note that most of the Holy wars were fought for this exact reason - freedom to live as they chose in a land that was HOSTILE to CHRISTIANS!

ps. ever try to live as an american catholic in Jerusalem? likelyhood of being killed within the first year: %? ever try living as a hasodic (sp?) Jew or Muslim in america? Likelyhood of being killed? %?
who is more intollerant? the Chinese Politcal army or christian americans? they shoot christians over there. we kill only murderers over here. what planet do you live on again?

(pps. history is not much different from the current times either - look at the taoists extermination for an example... they still (i think) refuse to recognize it as a religion!)
