I would get somewhat bored if I lived in an area where most thought alike. Also, by saying that "most....are of the same people", you're not suggesting any kind of inbreeding are you?

Really quite simple really - a preference..sorry if you interpreted as making you wrong for choosing to live in murfreesboro- not my intent -

You didn't make me feel "wrong" at all. It just sounded like a tasteless Lascassas sales pitch.

But I'm sure you would be perfectly okay with a Muslim making a public show of his faith...

What are you implying, that Tennessee has become "progressive" enough that loving God and country is not en vogue?

Muslim/Christian keep your faith in your house of worship not in my tax funded public schools.

I was implying that one could probably find more god in schools in MS than TN.

Mike,Pimpy, honestly I didn't take it the wrong way. I guess my post may have sounded that way. I try and reword it alittle different.
As long as things here are still to most of our liking, not many of us could immagine seeking out to live in another place. Most of the families here date way back  The people have no shame in what they believe in.
I'll post this since it was in the public paper.
Alexandria City Hall displays Ten Commandments
By LISA UNDERHILL
At the regular business meeting of The Alexandria City Council on June 27, Bro. Philip Lane of West Main Baptist Church in Alexandria presented the City Hall with a framed print of the "The Commandments" to be displayed in the building.

I was defending your post, not attacking it. I think it is ridiculous to imply that Tennessee has become so "progressive" that making a public show of your love for your country or for God has become unacceptable, and that you should move somewhere like Mississippi to find an atmosphere where patriotism is welcomed.
