Good point. The key is that they live and let live. That's why I have an aversion to evangelicalism, it's so cultish,...... "my dog's better than your dog," I hate that crap. As an aside, I wonder how comfortable the RR would be if an orthodox jew (or someone beholden to them) was elected president....(a family values and education platform)... IMO, there are too many different diverse kinds of people in the US to elect a zealot of any kind, imho. Or maybye that is the RR's real problem, too much diversity. R they scared of a little competition? or is it simply bigotry and an underlying desire pure a pure white christian society... enam

Brian P, res-<<Orthodox Jews are not hurting anyone in America. The Bob Jonesers are. <<They are not the ones spewing garbage about other races and other religions in the most un-American way imaginable. >> Not that I approve of Bob Jones University (since I know very little about it). But can you give me specific examples to back up the claims you have made? Have you ever actually attended the University? Spoke with a student? Met with a teacher? Or are you instead simply paraphrasing what you hear on the nightly news? For me to be filled with the kind of hatred and fear toward the university you seem filled with, I would have to have a lot of experience and maybe even first hand knowledge of their acts. Michael
