Double standard but not surprised - mu7176grad MU - 1/3 10:26:25

When someone of a faith other than Christianity - MrBlueSky MU - 1/3 10:28:15

So moving forward, you're cool with people saying this: - ummmm MU - 1/3 10:40:31

he won't acknowledge his presumptions (nm) - 90Tiger MU - 1/3 13:37:37

What about their faith in government? Does that not count? (nm) - ummmm MU - 1/3 10:28:54

Suppose you would consider that a religion (nm) - MrBlueSky MU - 1/3 10:34:54

Statism is a religion - pickle MU

- 1/3 11:02:58

It is. (nm) - ummmm MU - 1/3 10:39:33

Christianity coupled with gov't has caused - Newcatbirdseat MU - 1/3 10:27:36

I see your edit now. We're talking about before the person - ummmm MU - 1/3 10:21:14

Is it a legitimate concern though? - ummmm MU - 1/3 10:19:10

I'm not concerned with either - MrBlueSky MU - 1/3 10:21:19

Your posting history suggests otherwise: - ummmm MU - 1/3 10:23:10

Again - MrBlueSky MU - 1/3 10:25:15

You don't think the woman from Minnesota wants to push her - ummmm MU - 1/3 10:28:10

Did she campaign with that message? - MrBlueSky MU - 1/3 10:41:42

What message? I didn't put any message in my last post. (nm) - ummmm MU - 1/3 10:42:59

Of legislating her morality - MrBlueSky MU - 1/3 10:43:28

Well, of course. That's the whole nature of centralized - ummmm MU - 1/3 10:44:34

But someone who is a devout Christian/Muslim/etc - MrBlueSky MU - 1/3 10:57:06

Also, we're not talking about any given muslim or christian - ummmm MU - 1/3 11:01:25

But is it a legitimate concern for someone to say this: - ummmm MU - 1/3 11:00:51

Okay how about this: - ummmm MU - 1/3 11:07:19

Yes - MrBlueSky MU - 1/3 11:05:58

Also, you're lying about why you posted it. - ummmm MU - 1/3 11:08:41

To show their fear of Muslims... - MrBlueSky MU - 1/3 11:15:15

gods below you are obtuse, stupid or stubborn. Clearly - 90Tiger MU - 1/3 13:40:30

You are pretzelling yourself once again. (nm) - ummmm MU - 1/3 11:18:38

Hardly - MrBlueSky MU - 1/3 11:22:01

Being concerned about a devout Muslim taking central power - ummmm MU - 1/3 11:27:05

I think there's a big difference - Mormad MU - 1/3 10:53:15

Is there a difference between these statements though: - ummmm MU - 1/3 10:59:38

No, they're equal statements about 2 different belief sets - Mormad MU - 1/3 11:01:11

Are they both legitimate concerns? (nm) - ummmm MU - 1/3 11:01:44

Sure, to me they are - Mormad MU - 1/3 11:04:29

Thanks. That was the whole point of this thread. - ummmm MU - 1/3 11:05:42

Policing? - MrBlueSky MU - 1/3 11:08:21

That is absolutely what you were doing - ummmm MU - 1/3 11:09:18
