SNF's comments at Robert E. Lee day

Adam I think you're wasting your time arguing this point with him. Check out his post on sponge bob.To him morality is like an elastic band....Meant to be bent and twisted in which ever way suits....Some people first form an opinion, and then look for the facts to back it up. Thus causing them to have many contradicting beliefs and philosophies. Sometimes the best evidence you'll find against the validty of the "crackpot" christians is in fact themselves.....

1. It seems to me from your previous comments as it apparently does to Adam as well that you have a surprising tolerance for personal short comings when looking at us white men, but seem almost completely intolerant of those found in a great black man like MLK.2. Killing the "helpless" and "innocent" is wrong only if that life happens to be still directly involved with a women's reproductive cycle.i.e. no arguments for ppl on life support or in comas... (many of them babies themselves) 3. The sponge bob thing just leaves me speechless......Is it wrong to pass judgment on everyone except minorities and homosexuals?

I don't have hostility towards evangelical Christianity per se. My hostility is towards ignorance. I have great contempt for things that are not logical because I feel they are a waste of time. Though if someone tried to take away your right to practice those beliefs that I consider illogical and ignorant I would be the first to defend you. This is because I don't have to destroy anything or anyone that is not the same as me to live a harmonious life.On the other hand I do not support your arrogant notion that you have the right to force your unproven, factually challenged faith and ideas on the rest of the world. Prove to me there is a god and I'd be inclined to believe in him. Show me that a fetus passes at least 3 of the tests for "PERSONHOOD" already being applied to brain dead patients on life support and I would be inclined to be against abortion. If you can't provide facts and proof that your ideas and opinions are right, then you are free to apply those beliefs to yourself, but incorrect when assuming you have the right to apply them to the masses. It is wrong for you to expect others to change and follow your way of life offering them only FAITH and the questionable validity of the bible as proof your cause is right. If you succeed in making FAITH and BELIEF the only requirement for law I fear you will find all your efforts will backfire on you if you ever find yourself to be in the minority. And, history has shown us that no certain group will maintain their position of majority forever. Your kids might find themselves living in a fanatical Islamic majority or perhaps a white supremacist majority, united minority supremacist group, or maybe even Atheists. As science progresses more and more people are beginning to question the validity of the whole god argument. Some of my less liberal brethren might someday find it necessary to prevent your kind from POISIONING the minds of your children with your religious crap. They could say its immoral because you impede their ability to grasp complex scientific discoveries that contradict their religious beliefs thereby denying society the chance to benefit from whatever contribution they could have made to science. Now, wouldn't that be scary?Good luck and may "your God" help you if your kind starts making the laws of this country. The next group to take control will apply your same proof test and see that they do not need to actually prove what they believe is true. All they have to do is say it, call it moral and voila! You have a new law.
