Freedom of Religion vs Freedom of Worship
Scaremongering at its very best. I think your interpretation of "important" is a tad different to the rest of the world.
What are these other slippery slope societal changes you harken back to? Slavery? The good old days of illegal back street abortions?
Watch out !!! Behind you!!!! He dun used a diffrent wurd!!!!
According to their ethics - it is. No morals. None. Disgusting.
Hey Mark,
Still haunting the religion forum I see!
Yes, it is all in how one reads it.
The whole of civilization has been one big slippery slope, don't ya think?
Yes, it was incorrect to imply that the slippery slopes of religions run by governments have somehow just started...it's been going on for a long time...the warning has been valid throughout history.
Hey, I'm going to be a grandma for the third time soon
...are you a grandparent yet? am I remembering correctly that you do have children??none of my kids are into oil...we hail farther north, from the cornfields and hills of Kansas
not an attack on society per se...just a comment on the article and the use of words that has always been the divider of nations and people
slippery slope kinds of changes begin in people's heads and take action from there...when actions come from the heart they are more in alignment with the Universal Order
use of words can help define the difference in actions, though not alwaysMy mistake - I thought several of your kids were fighting in Iraq.
Still do not understand the "slippery slope societal changes that have gone on without much notice" you claim this article addressed.
Universal Order?yea, a son-in-law was flying helicopters in Iraq for a year...but that ended in June of 09. He came home with all parts intact
but it is my other daughter having her first child that I am talking about now.
Universal Order...you know, God's Creation and the order from which all energy into matter flows...has it been that long since we communicated with each other that you don't recall what I mean by Universal Order
or that I tend to rarely be understood when I speak about somethingNot really my issue if you choose to be so dishonest in your statements.
I Usually understand what you are pretending not to say. Yes.
Hey Sandra !!! how's it goin'?
long time no communicate...
how are things in California...right?
how's your daughter...growing fast, no doubt!Slavery, killing Indians, Indentured servitude, Central bank - OK - get it. Thanks.
Dishonesty is why people despise the religion you are lying about not pushing SJ. Disgusting really. God sed wot the Konstitution woz?
Dear me. Glad your kid got back from killing people for the oil company with his bits intact. She is a good argument for that actually.
oh mark, why do you need to always start a nasty banter with name labeling and enuendo
I was a product of the sexual freedoms of the 60s, a mother at 14 married with two children and divorced before I was 18 and slept with over 25 men and had two more children as a single parent, before going celibate at age 32...
I am not a good Christian housewife pushing Jesus your version of the stereotypical good wife...I never have been, never will be...that is funny! so, sorry, that label I am not a good argument for
It woz the sky fairy wot dunnitall!
I got another one!
May god and his son bless us all
and save us all from satan.
But only if we had the urge to read the book of hatin.
Homosexuals, hetorics, those dirty unbelievers
will go to hell to burn in fire, those blasphemous deceivers!
While all of us who read the book, will go straight up to heaven, we're better than the rest of you, multiplied by seven.
You horrid little atheists,
who still believe in science
who don't bow down and understand the good behind compliance
may all your kids get hoopin cough, a pox upon your town,
may your chooks turn in to emus and kick your dunny down!
Written with love of course!A mature chicken is a chook here, sorry about the strine!
Hi Sparkling, you know, just when you think that Obama can't get any more of a communist in public, he does something that let's you know that you gotta catch-up.
I'm hoping that it just stays with his term. If this is something that spreads, it'll be a fundamental change. Perhaps as his spokesperson said, it is his way of phrasing things in a politically correct way for the benefit of muslims but why does it have to come at the expense of religions in general? He's just creepy.

A Slippery Slope? - The "Rights" of Mankind
I was chatting with a friend, Sam, the other day. He is openly gay, insists that he is a traditional Orthodox Jew and is very adamant about his “rights”. He believed that “people should be able to live however they wanted to or chose” – which to me, is the scariest phrase in the history of mankind....
