You could always move to another country, since you clearly hate America. It sounds like you'd enjoy living under the Taliban, so you oughta give Afghanistan a try.

The only force denigrating Christianity are those believers who glean their righteousness from cleaning others house morally before their own. It's amusing how the name of Jesus is tagged on to so many misguided causes. As for secularism the only legitimate religion again that's the fault of shallow believers who justify themselves through what they disapprove rather then what they practice. It's telling you equate hate crimes with a belief that homosexuality is wrong. A person can believe it all they want they just can't commit crimes against those who practice it, or tolerate it. That's a hate crime and laws against that are a good thing. It's a weak argument to say homosexuality is bad therefore I'll kill homosexuals and it's in opposition of Christan's beliefs. In other words if what you disagree with motivates you to commit immoral acts against those practicing them your just as immoral. This question is more a profiling through misguided perceptions with tunnel vision beyond a limited belief system. It's extremism with religious bigotry under the cloak of Christian puritanism. If this is just a minority issue then why is Roe vs Wade still intact ? If it's the majority then why were many people outraged over the brutal murder of Matthew Shepard ? If their the minority why was an Alabama judge forced to take down his copy of the 10 Commandments ? As for secondary status Christianity has earned that with the likes of Ann Coultor, George Bush, Pat Robertson and Jessie Jackson. The prophets of intolerance under the guise of Christianity has ruined your credibility because you tolerate them in the house. I suppose if anything the minority as you call them is trying to promote tolerance for people living in a diverse culture. If we didn't we'd be noting more then an exclusive closed society that tolerated intolerance. I've no problem with the Boy Scouts hiring leaders who reflect their exclusive views, I support their right to that. The 10 commandants, prayer in school, the Pledge of Allegiance all fine with me. Hate crimes for acts committed against minorities based solely on that is a good thing. It's the parable of the minority laying wounded along side the road and many walked by because he was offensive to them. Which one did God commend ?

You ever hear of separation of church and state! Just because OUR constitution gives us rights, doesn't mean they will always be good when taken to an extreme! That is the price we pay for being free! It is like throwing the baby out with the bath water! It is also how bad laws are made!
Prayer has no place in school, unless it is religious! Why would your right to have prayer outweigh mine not to,
You know, there are also some things you just have to get over! The Catholic Church didn't have an issue with abortion until they changed their minds, and the reason they changed them had nothing to do with morality!
What do you think of pedophile priests?
Do us a favor and stop playing GOD!
And you are no liberal. You are a neocon fascist!

these issues have been around alot longer then you think and nothing ever changes .
THE battle swings one way and then the other with very little change .
WHEN the religious people tried to ban porn the left was there to save it from extinction .
THEY told people to leave this freedom alone and so many objected .
ITS hard for me to imagine a handfull of perverts spend what 150 billion on porn in america annually
THATS alot of money by a couple of perverts .YOU know!!! that minority you mentioned in your question .those two perverts .
WELL i can say that porn is some nasty stuff and should be avoided but thats my choice and not for me to tell anyone what to do .

I can't see how you could come to any other conclusion.
re "Prayer has no place in school, unless it is religious! Why would your right to have prayer outweigh mine not to,"
Where do you make the leap logically that hearing something means you automatically agree and partake in the activity?
We would be content with we can pray you don't have to. each being consistent. there is nothing in the constitution that says you have the right never hear a prayer. Freedom of religion includes freedom of speech about religion, or are you one of those intolerant types who need favor censorship.

If in fact the "Majority Rules" how can the minority force anything on you! Or are you trying to pick and choose what parts of the US Constitution should be upheld?

Well, I'm one of those people that are pro euthanasia and anti-abortion. My family carries a genetic disease that is very agonizing to have and to watch. There have been suicides, going off medication to die and begging spouse, cousin, sister,etc. to kill them.
Some are too gone to commit suicide and some can not kill themselves.
Other than that, I agree with you.

Some of it might be true but I think some of that might be hype made up by radio guy Michael Savage (as a conservative, I used to listen to him but I gave up because he's always angry).
