It's the old slippery slope thing again. Hey, i'm a petunia worshiper. It's my religion to carry a pink petunia in my right hand every fourth friday, and on wednesday every month unless it's a leap year. My petunia requires a greenhouse and I need special golden garden tools to take care of it. would you please supply this? I DEMAND I BE ABLE TO PRACTICE MY RELIGION!
Very Funny Chris! Sometimes humor is the best way to illustrate a point.
Yes Brett, but we live now. People saying "well you did this" (meaning Christians), or "you did that" (meaning say whites in regard to race) is invalid. Invalid, because I did nothing. What matters is what a particular religion, race, group of any kind is doing now, or will do in the future. Contrary to popular belief we can't rewrite history, only choose to not repeat it.
CHRIS....I totally agree with you on this point!
Jonathan, as a Christian, I can understand why you're upset about this issue; but as an American, I have to agree with RICH and RED....we all have the right to worship and serve whoever we please and that is the constitution. I won't say much more on the issue because I don't want to upset my mother, if she is reading this....lol. She would be in total agreement with you Jonathan!!!

And if you continue that practice for a decade, and have others join you, you too may be eligible for your greenhouse(read the post).
That "slope" just got some stairs and some non-slip carpeting, huh?
These are recognized religions with long standing traditions, they deserve the same respect as any of the currently, more practiced, theologies.
