And it explains without saying so why Catholics (with excarpions) have always tended to strongly oppose calling the country a Christian nation.And that's because they know that if there were a battle about what type of Christian nation it would be, they'd lose. |

How about you play the ball rather than the man for once? There's only 5 points. If the site is so devoid of factual content as you claim then even you should have no problem supplying plenty of evidence to the contrary. You owe it to those here who have tolerated your presence with somewhat good grace, so lets see your point by point refutation of the site's claims.Hop to it boy. |

How did you come to that ridiculously wrong conclusion? How many atheists study in yeshiva? How many atheists celebrate the anniversary or their bar mitzvah by reading their entire Torah portion? How many atheists lead (not just attend) High Holiday services? How many keep Shabbat? Need I go on? |

How come you always "answer" questions with more questions? Don't you have any responses to the things you get asked?I don't respect people who consider it a part of their religion to change who I am, what I believe in, or think that I need to do certain things in order for their version of Messianic redemption to occur. I especially hate it when people engage in that behavior in such a way that people, such as yourself, are duped by it and think that the person doing those sorts of things actually has your best interest at heart, which is what Olog and many other right wing Christians do. You're being played for a fool, and people are trying to help you. I hope someday you realize it. |

Those five reasons have completely undermined my reading of history, including culture, rules, laws, customs, court rulings, and documents in museums, which is very wide ranging.Especially the heading that says that they "would likely have" versus what they actually were. So well written. I am also no convinced that Columbus had arabic translators on board to speak to the Indians in their own native Arabic language too. |
