LTTE input? thoughts
Get your Dogma off my constitution!



The American Taliban, and other Radical Clerics are camped out in Washington DC in front of Senator Frists office cashing in chits! These people are as radical as any Taliban, or other theocratic terrorists. They don’t want to take over a third world country in some desolate region; they want to take over the largest nation in the world. Their Dogma is not mine! You better make sure it’s yours or get busy. I for one don’t buy it. They want power and lots of it. They threatened the entire administration and the legislature today to bully their dogma into our laws. What happened to changing hearts in church?


Why aren’t these people lined up trying to adopt the unwanted children in foster care? Why aren’t they helping young women learn about birth control so they don’t become pregnant. Why aren’t they helping young women with health care expenses so they can afford birth control? These are not moral issues? Do they really want to stem abortion, or do they want to impose their own religious dogma on the majority of us who do not support their agenda. It’s a fact that the majority of people are pro-choice. It’s a fact that these people do not represent the majority of mainstream America. Women you better wake up! Young ladies you better wake up! Young mothers of girls Wake up! They do not only want to eliminate choice they want to eliminate birth control as well. They want to control the Government, and set us back to a time of Salem and witch trials. Hide the coat hangers!

2. Backward isn't it
You just have to explain to them to think on thier own, and use logic. Magic really doesn't work, and because one "preacher says" its so, doesn't mean its so.

Good for you.

I adopted too.

5. Be sure to keep them out of Hell Houses
Fundies have been pretty successful at scaring the Jesus into teens with those places.
