I'm an agnostic. I don't understand the logic of aethiests. There is as little proof that God does not exist as their is proof he does exist. That said, the banner wouldn't bother me. Now, if they told a female relative she couldn't get a pregnancy terminated because it was a sin, I would mind.

She was harmed Jim. That is why she defended her rights. If you read the comments regarding the case, she felt the banner harmed her. You and I might not have felt this way, but she did, and she was being harmed in a,manner that was unconstitutional. |

I don't pay any attention to any of it Tom. I create my own reality moment by moment. What I'm aware of is my only reality, and no gods or goblins exist in it. |

Jim, I know you pride yourself on answering direct questions. I imagine you just missed this one. So, I will ask it again in order that you have a real chance to answer it. If a majority of Americans wanted all guns registered with the government, and the ACLU went to court and got such action prohibited because it is unconstitutional, would that be properly described as "tyranny of the minority?" |

Not the topic of this thread, Lowell. Stop trying to divert. |

Not trying to divert, Jim. You did introduce the concept of "tyranny of the minority" to this thread. Surely that was not an attempt to divert, or was it? It certainly got my attention. I do have to admit that I fully understand your reluctance to answer my direct question. The answer would either be embarrassing to you ore demonstrate that you are a hypocrite. But, thanks for the diversion anyway. |

I guess that Jim thinks his diversion of introducing the concept of "tyranny of the minority' is somehow hilarious. Different strokes for different folks. |
