One Christian who fought back.

John 11, John 12, Matt 26, Mark 8, Luke 24, John 6, Matt 11, will that do for now? weak spot.....yeah.....haha....right........

 

Just pointing out what a poor analogy you had made. You have posted nothing that shows anything else.

 

If you want to fight, move to Lebanon. That was set up as a Christian state to act as a decoy to and front line against Islamic jihad. But the Chickenhawk Conservatives think that fighting means talking tough.

 

Aren't opinions nice? It is also nice to be able to express opinions, and my opinion is that you have posted nothing of any importance.

 

John 11 He prays in a tomb. Fail
John 12 He denies an audience and people overhear the voice of God. Fail
Matt 26 He separates Himself from His disciples to pray privately in the Garden. Fail
Mark 8 doesn't show any prayer that I can see. Fail
Neither does Luke 24. Fail
Ditto John 6. Fail
In Matt 11, He seems to have a brief aside to the Father in the middle of a sermon. Demi-fail.

Then don't respond.
Certainly you didn't defend this absurd analogy.

 

The GHF morons fall within free speech because they do NOT use taxmoney. This guy was trying to push his religion at a tax paid event. Completely different.

 

It does not mention them specifically, but it does state that the government is not allowed to support or deny any religion or lack of thereof. The government must be completely secular in all matters. So, alowing religous gestures to be official parts in public events violates the rights of non-religious peoples, and members of other religions by forcing them to take part in it if they want to take part in the event, and forces them to suport it financially by use of tax money.

 

So having prayer at a tax paid event does not violate the religious rights of those who pay taxes and do not share that religious belief?

Many of the same people praising the guy would condment it if a non-christian was allowed to do the same.

 

First of all, you have not shown any absurd analogies other than those that you might have written. Secondly, to throw in the descriptive adjective "absurd" only shows that you are expressing an opinion. Where are the facts to support your opinion? Thirdly, I did respond... have you gone completely daft?

 

Heheh, that's the point. If it were a muslim praising Mo the screams of indignation would be heard far and wide.

 

Already showed how the analogy was a loser.
Sorry you can't figure it out.

 

Thank you for this news.

 

So people should be forced to leave a major event in their lives because some other jack@ss wants to hijack by making it about his religion? Seriously?
Your rights are limited by the rights of those around you.

 

All you have done is shown an opinion... no proof... just opinion.

 

What is it and where does it say that?

 

If he were a Muslim praying, would you guys have as much of a problem as you do with a Christian praying?

 

If faculty cannot be religious because that is perceived as state-sponsored, then policies the are geared toward punishing students who display acts of faith is an unconstitutional policy prohibiting the free exercise thereof in my opinion. Perhaps if religion were not so taboo in public settings people would discuss the differences and have a greater understanding of other faiths or positions and be more tolerant of those.

 

Valedictorian supposed to talk about what made him a valedictorian. What made him who he is. Why can't he say his christian beliefs since those are what made him work so hard to become valedictorian?

 

According to scripture:

Job 11:12 (DRA) =

"A vain man is lifted up into pride, and thinketh himself born free like a wild ass's colt."

Proverbs 11:2 (DRA) = "Where ​

pride

is, there also shall be reproach: but where humility is, there also is wisdom."

Proverbs 16:18 (DRA) = "Pride goeth before destruction: and the spirit is lifted up before a fall."

​

 

Would he be praised for doing so if he were muslim?

 

Seriously, if he were a Muslim praying, would you guys have as much of a problem as you do with a Christian praying?

 

So ask god and he will tell you that he has no problems with the Lord's prayer.

Personally, I wouldn't find it any more appropriate. The only difference in reaction might occur because islam isn't being pushed in our faces every 5 minutes and there is no push in the US to base legislation on it to force everyone to live by that dogma.

 

Muslims aren't suppose to seek praise for themselves.

 

Neither are Christians... right?
