Bus- LittleJ is a woman who used to live in the area... she works for FEMA or some other related organization
Free- Do you disagree with the sentiment in the poster? Should religion be flaunted in public and forced upon children? _________________ The end is nigh! OR forums die APRIL 1. Don't lose contact! Join the forums at bogsource.com now! |

don't really care , not looking for an apol, just hate to see someone ripped because of how someone else may want to be a f-ing crusader or something. |

Elmo, I'm certain you're a good man, and you don't view the sexual molesting of children as a joke _________________ where-ever you get it - there you have it. - Anon. |

Of course not... that's why the sentiment is that you SHOULDN'T molest children... just like you shouldn't brainwash them into following one particular supernatural belief system... _________________ The end is nigh! OR forums die APRIL 1. Don't lose contact! Join the forums at bogsource.com now! |

Awwwright... you and I are okay on the "molesting" part....
Now we need to discover the differences between "forcing" "brainwashing" and "guiding...or teaching " _________________ where-ever you get it - there you have it. - Anon. |

How many people who "guide" their children in understanding Jesus and Yahweh also present them with proportionately equal information on Allah and Mohammed?
If you only guide them in one direction... what exactly IS the difference between that and brainwashing?
As Brant would be more apt to provide the quote... if children were allowed to grow to the age of reason before given religious "options"... you'd see a hell of a lot more atheists in the world. _________________ The end is nigh!

But let's also not forget the other sentiment expressed in the joke... you don't waggle your willy in public... why swing your religion around in the open air? _________________ The end is nigh! OR forums die APRIL 1. Don't lose contact! Join the forums at bogsource.com now! |

If you consider guidance, that does not equally encompass and represent all spiritual philosophies, past present and future, such as Wiccan, Voodoo, and Hinduism, as being brainwashing instead of teaching, then I claim you are impractical and have never raised a child
with the attention span of a drosophilia...

Kids need something to believe in, so you pick something and teach it..
And that thing must be bigger and better than you are.....

I was going to look into this Tea Bag movement this week end and see what all the fuss is about.
So, I searched "teabagging". Did any of you know what teabagging was before these political things popped up?
They didn't either, I am sure or it would be named the New Boston Harbour or some thing.
I am not going to post what it is, but the sentence in red above ain't far off. |

Exactly! I especially enjoy it when they refer to themselves as teabaggers!
Bus---now you know why I think this sign is so funny!!
