How do you feel about secular humanists shoving their beliefs down our throats

I feel they are just as wrong as the religious freaks trying to shove their hypocritical morality down our throats. The difference between you and me is that I want both sides to stop trying to force their beliefs and just let people live. You only want to stop progressive people. You constatnyl defend a single religion's right to impose their will on all people.

Huh? Was that supposed to be funny? Perhaps it's that "British (aka "not funny") Humor" that I never understood. NPR features alot of it on their elite weekend shows.

Another fine example of "diversity" and "tolerance" from the left!!! How do you feel about secular humanists shoving their beliefs down our throats (the ACLU, athiests trying to remove "God" from our pledge and our coins, homosexual activists forcing our public schools to tell our children that homosexuality is an acceptable "alternative lifestyle", etc.)? Are you against that also?

It amazes me that there are still a lot of ignorant people out there who actually support prohibition even after the horrible experience of prohibition in the 1920's and 1930's.
I guess they think Al Capone was a good person?

"What right did they have in interfering with a legitimate business? Why were they not sued for invasion of privacy?"

They invaded nobody's privacy. Those people were photographed in PUBLIC, and their license plates are PUBLIC information.

whoamama1,

The article says local businesses claim " ending the sale of beer, wine and liquor would hurt tax revenues and send the message that Athens is backward." It's not CBS saying that, they are just reporting it!

I never understood why the Christian Right is against sale of alcohol, after all the bible says Jesus turned water into wine, not the other way around!

Let's have a standing ovation for the liberals, paraders of "tolerance" and "diversity"!!!

Great post mikey!

"It was wine as well that Jesus had his diciples drink and remember Him and His sacrifice. So where do SOME christians get the idea that drinking is tabu???"

Consumption of alcohol is not a problem; however, the irresponsible overindulgence, e.g., drinking until you're puking all over yourself and pisssing in the sink, passing out, and waking up next to a fat chick, IS a problem. I'm not in favor of prohibition - it doesn't work. You can't legislate morality. I'm simply anwsering your question.

The third club opened in the downtown area of my city. It thrived for quite some time. However local churches were taking members to protest it, taking pictures and videos of patrons going in to the club. They also were taking license plate numbers and posting them on their website. Needless to say, the club closed. What right did they have in interfering with a legitimate business? Why were they not sued for invasion of privacy?

You got something against this ????"

The comment I was referring to was loaded with INtolerance. My comment was sarcastic.
