[/quote] So wait a minute... it's persecution if the Christians are targeted, but not if Scientologists, Mormons or Jews? And while I realize that you are directing this quote to WS specifically because you feel he picks on Christians unfairly or something, you are simply proving your own narrow-mindedness to me. In re: the question about teaching your children about your faith as they are growing up. I don't particularly mind that so much (err... 12 years of Catholic schooling will do that to ya.. yeah) as long as the children are exposed to other faiths and religions and beliefs as a matter of course. Jade, you wrote: [quote] [b]jade said:[/b] For sure... I do want to give my children the opportunity to save their souls. When they get older they can choose for themselves. what faith they want to die with. ... For me, teaching children about the christian God does no harm. They are given the opportunity to change and become athiest at any time in their lives. [/quote] Now I'm just guessing here, but looking over a few of your posts, I highly doubt you'd be fine with any of your kids choosing to be anything but the same faith you subscribe to when they grow up. Even if they chose a different flavor of faith, I have the feeling you wouldn't be happy until they were back in the fold of the saved where they can ascend to heaven upon the Rapture. As for completely changing faiths? Can you honestly, [b]HONESTLY[/b] say that you would be happy for your children if this happened, and would allow them to practice their new faith in peace? Be careful with your response here, because your biases are very obvious and very open. If you truly were as tolerant as your second quote would have people believe, then a cartoon wouldn't upset you and you wouldn't so wrong-mindedly call it "persecution." _____________________ [sigrotate][img]http://coeurdefeu.com/sigs/asylum_sig04a.gif[/img]\|[img]http://coeurdefeu.com/sigs/asylum_sig03b.gif[/img][/sigrotate] [url=http://coeurdefeu.com]coeur de feu[/url] :: [url=http://www.grimwell.com]Grimwell Online[/url] Qui sème le vent récolte la tempête!
