In addition, I feel sorry for people (pretty much all of society) who suffer the aftereffects of such sensationally-presented, full-facts-lacking "stories" being picked up by fundies set to present such atrocities as anti-Christian "attacks", and then step up their constant agenda to "bring Christianity back" (as if it ever left), causing clashes, legal battles, school issues and the like.

So...I pretty much feel sorry for everybody at this point. Well, except for you, the original presenter of the story as half a story, commented with merely an apparently shocked "WOW!" and then stepped back to watch people react and watch the ---- fly.

But I'm glad the (Christian) perpetrator of this attack is getting help, anyway. We do agree on that.
WOW you read a lot in what I posted. I was just reporting it and put in a little humor, tongue in cheek at the end. I thought people had the smarts to find the "rest of the story" and they did but not without some hammering me.

Question: Why should anyone respect YOUR beliefs when you dismiss other beliefs with "So what?"

Uh-huh.

People DO have the smarts to see through an agenda.

I guess not. But what agenda would that be anyway?

I don't see what all the fuss is about. He was not the first person to break all 10 commandments at the same time.


That was Moses.

Didn't think you could read. Look a few posts up...I outright stated the answer to this, before you even asked it. And no, I will no more spoon-re-feed you the information I already gave you outright than I would accept such silliness and game-playing behavior from my eight-year-old child.

You have posted a lot in this thread. Maybe you could give me the number of that post or summarize it at least.
