Since I came to this thread to learn more about Islam, and the reasons that they could justify the attacks on 9/11, and there was a person like Bill Jackson who didn't give a whit about Islam, but just wanted to barf his bile of atheism on this thread, it was my intention to attempt to run him off, so we could get down the the purpose of the thread. Perhaps I have spent too much time on the political threads, where my style of posting is, quite often, considered to be mild. If anyone, other than Bill Jackson, has taken offense, I apologize and will go elsewhere. I am very disappointed, as a US citizen, that our womens' team, I assume hockey, would perform such a despicable act. I do not condone such an act that attempts to degrade another nation's flag. Not even those of our enemies. The flag is the symbol of a nation, that usually has been won by the hardship of it's people, and should not be desecrated. What dogma are you referring to that has brainwashed me with it's dogma. I am a Christian for reasons that have nothing to do with any denomination, preacher, or building misnamed as a church. Since I do not attend such places, no brainwashing has been done. As I said about Bill Jackson, he was not interested in Islam, but wants to use this post to spew his atheism. Anyone has a right to be an atheist, if they so chose, should be welcome on this thread as long as they restrict their comments to the topic at hand. BTW, you are pretty good at the petty insults yourself. They just lack a little pizzazz.
