Emile, In other words, you are advocating that U.S. citizens not have the same freedoms of speech and religious pursuit. You are saying that Christians should enjoy the freedom to try and convert Jews, but jews should not enjoy the same freedom. In fact, if one digs deeper into what you are saying, you are proposing that it is evil of jews to attempt to do the same things that you give christians the full right to do. Now, under thses circumstances, it is no wonder tht you view Jews to be constantly trying to usurp the rights of Christians, when all they are doing is enjoying the same rights that we all enjoy in the U.S.A. Keep talking Emile, you are doing a wonderful job of illuminating your philosophy for all those who wish to view it's real meaning, and illogical meandering. Thank you, ever so much Mark

That is preposterous. Religion and science are not the same thing. Religion is based upon pure faith. Science is based upon hard facts or hypothesis. In the matters of religion (faith) people have every right to believe or not believe in any particular deity. After all, religious freedom is one of the major reasons people came to America. Now you would hold one religion over another and say no else from any other group has a right to do what the first group does. Shall we look at forced conversions and its consequences throughout history. Just look at what the Spaniards did to the Aztecs or the Caribbean Indians to see what has been wrought in the name of one religious group having complete faith that theirs is the right and only way. I thank heavens this country has the common sense not to have people like you in power. People who think like you would have all those who don't think as you do marching off to "religious" concentration camps to be indoctinated into the correct faith. Just look at practices throughout history Inquisitor Vidrine.
