typical anti Christ spiel, dude. No new news here. You say evangelism is a violation of rights. First , Christians gave you those rights...haha Second, I am calling you out then as an evangelist. Since YOU are preaching atheism, you are evangelizing, so concern yourself with that, ....and quit preachin that nonsense!! Third, YOU are the one enslaved, dude. Christians have been granted FREEDOM from this bondage of sin, and you revel in it, as you know no better. Just as your master would have it. So YOU are in bondage not me. Fourth, since you seem to want no morality for my kids, there is no telling WHAT other mayhem you are capable of, so I have to watch out for wolves . Fifth, I know this type of talk does not match up with your worldview or may not be politically correct, but it is truth and you need to hear it. Sixth, I am not a fan of Robertson, I am a big Fan of Jesus of Nazareth, the Messiah, who died for me. Care to know more, feel free to PM me. Evening dan

Steven, do you lay awake worrying about the impending Theocracy? What difference does it make how an individual derives his world view? Why are some world views more valid than others?

Hi Steven! nice to see most of the old gang has decided to post here. Now, as to your post.... res- <<<All evangelism is a violation of the right of others to hold - or not hold - their own beliefs, free from harassment or interference.>>> This may come as a surprise to you. But religios freedom was one of the concepts this country was founded on. To believe that Pat Robertson and his church represents some hideous threat to America is fearmongering nonsense. Religios people aren't the problem in America. Bigotry, racism, and people intent of separating people into different religios stereotypes, thereby increasing divisiveness is. Real leaders recognize that unity in diversity is the deep democracy that underlies the strength of America. And they attempt to create environments which emphasize our commitment to treating each other with dignity, trust and respect in each other's beliefs, values and differences. Fundementalist Christianity is a part of our cultural diversity as a nation. In divisional leadership, of the type practiced by McCain recently, there is no connectedness between the divided parts. In diversity there exist threads of unity. Our country needs leadership which understands the importance of unity, not division. Michael
