What should America's State Religion Be?

Christ sakes you are ignorant. Get a education and then come back.
Also, study some accounting, I hate to break it to you, but FASB, the SEC, and managerial and financial accounting are part of accounting, contrarty to your belief

Two can play this game.

Steeeve: "If you don't know the vast majority about something, you know nothing about it."
Do I need to bring that back up again or will you go away?


BTW: You're not a christian according to your own argument.
 
Where is the choice for None? JC! Ok, if I have to pick one, it would be Satanism...He's the only one that seems to be down in the trenches with us. OH, or how about the giant spaghetti god of Varnon? Or me, we could all worship ME! At least I exist!
 
That was what led up to the American revolution snakespit, but the Puritans left England for freedom of Religion. So you are confusing 2 distinct historical events.

During the period of English turmoil Jamestown and Plymouth were founded in America and the colonies began to be settled. Fresh in the minRAB of the Founders of the United States were the seventeenth century struggles in England and restrictions placed on those not conforming to the favored religion. In fact, many colonists left England for the colonies seeking religious freedom. Ironically, most of the original colonies soon adopted state-sanctioned religions. For that reason, the framers wrote in the First Amendment, "Congress shallmake no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the freeexercise thereof." Thus were born two religious freedom clauses to the Constitution: the Establishment Clause and the Free Exercise Clause. The two clauses acting together ensure that government neither supports nor penalizes a religion.

Freedom is something people from other countries understand. While it is quite clear you do not even have the slightest idea what freedom is, please do not chastise others because they actually know what freedom means.

The flag represents freedom and rights. Yet you voted that a piece of fabric is more important then freedom and the rights it represents.
 
Hopefully not for long..............

Then you can do as my friend Clint Eastwood said in the movie when it comes to burning our flag..........

"Do you feel lucky punk?"
 
I assume quality regarding appearance and social graces is also calculated on generosity? For the right window I mean donation some selection is possible? Or is quantity the only relationship to donation? I review my insurance bi-annually, is that type of evaluation and possible change in coverage available?
 
So you admit he's NOT turning the other cheek, so is going directly against Jesus' command?

Regardless of whether he can or can't turn the other cheek, he is NOT doing so.


Every one, includnig all European ones?

This suggests the opposite. Again. As usual.

Apart from "love your enemy, do good to those who hate you", presumably? I don't think it is as simple as degrees of Christianity. I don't think you can say that someone is more Christian than someone because they follow a different Christian tradition. I don't think you can say that Bush is more Christian than, for example, Jim Thompson (who died last year, alas), former Bishop of Bath and Wells and something of a leftie, or that Pope Benedict is more Christian than Rowan "hairy leftie" Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury. Two may be liberal and two conservative, but it is incorrect to say that one is more Christian than the other simply on that basis. I obviously admire some of those 4 more than others, I'll leave you to guess which ones...
 
I believe in turning the other cheek but within reason..........When 3,000 innocent Americans were murdered on 9/11/01 all bets were off......

I personally have been married almost 40 years and personally don't believe in divorce.............
 
When you speak of 'breaking away from English governmental authority', one must assume that you are speaking of the American Revolution, not the establishment of English colonies in North America, as the colonies remained under British authority until the revolution.
