That is why free speech is great! We are all entitled to our opinions. We won’t always agree with one another and I can handle that. Thanks for making my short time here, fun!!!

Wait. You can’t leave. You just said something vaguely contradictory about one of your earlier posts.

I didn’t think that thought through. The pastor of the church is entitled to free speech and should be able to post what he wants on his site. Many Christians just want people to be aware of this man. I should have thought the gun comment through, before posting.

Did you read his site at all? I got a chance to look at it and was not thrilled and many red flags went up.

I was honestly looking forward to going, not as a protester or participant, but simply as an observer. I have never been to one of these before and quite frankly I find the whole thing intriguing. I hope they change their minds.

Just call their church and tell them that the Beatles said they are more popular than Jesus, that will get them going and increase sales for Beatles Rock Band at the same time.

I liked the site.  And a red flag goes up for me every time someone talks about the invisible man that lives in the sky and who is his own father and son and who by simply dying in a horrifying, yet not uncommon manner, somehow washed away all our sins, even tho sin is a construct of said father/son/spirit…but that’s just me tho.

Understanding that people that find the trinity to be something made up, makes it that much more important to stand up for something that is going to cause people to have even more questions. Or even turn that much further away from the very thought of God.

This kind of thing turns people off, that isn’t what God wants.

I’m pretty sure God wants people to burn things, so…

How is her saying it was canceled somehow implying they should have their speech limited?

She seemed entirely too excited about the cancellation of the event. And, since I am in the mood these days, I immediately wondered if she would be so excited if it were a group that she supported being ridiculed and canceling a rally or speech or, you know, book burning. I was ever so gently leading her straight into that trap when she decided to….

Oh, look, she’s back. Yea.

Since you are new, I am actually not (at this time) going to wander off into my super-pedantic mode where I discuss what the pastor’s actual limits in regards to his free speech are. Plus, you actually had the courage to say you didn’t think something through. That, I think, says more about you than you know and i mean that in a really good way. There are entirely too few people in this world who will ever stop and admit they might have made a tiny mistake and will simply carry an argument out for weeks and weeks.

And no, I am not one of those people. Not because I don’t carry arguments out for weeks on end….

It is because I am never wrong. :P
