You are entitled to an opinion. You aren't entitled to express it anywhere you like, or in any manner in which you like. Those are two entirely different things.
I have no problem with people of faith. I've got my own faith. Most of my friends are people of faith, including a couple of ordained ministers. Love 'em.
I have a big problem with people of faith who evangelize, i.e. try to convince other people to believe as they do. It is the ultimate act of arrogance, to believe that what you believe is better than what someone else believes, simply because of an accident of birth and circumstance.
It has directly caused, or been a major factor in, most of the war in the world, as well as the justification for most of the environmental damage done to the planet.
So while you see yourself as legitimate in bringing your stuff here, your very presence is upsetting to me.
And I do pray now that Tebow is cut so that this stuff will just all go away from what had been a place of safety (this board) from the world's real problems and issues.
The bolded may be the biggest fiction ever. The italicized, the second biggest. It is power that causes war, not religion.
