Religion is not a taboo subject as some may say. I have beliefs I believe in god, I believe in the rights of the individual, I believe in free speech. Here are the fist ten amendments. I believe the server owners are indeed American. Here are ,
THE BILL OF RIGHTS
Amendments 1-10 of the Constitution

The Conventions of a number of the States having, at the time of adopting the Constitution, expressed a desire, in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of its powers, that further declaratory and restrictive clauses should be added, and as extending the ground of public confidence in the Government will best insure the beneficent ends of its institution;

I have values and rights which are protected by the constitution of the United States of America which are inalienable before god, as I have said before in cases of Pornography and in the subjugation of the rights of the individual; in a general sense. I will stand and I will not falter in my belief that it is wrong. I will stand for the rights of the innocent against the iniquitous I will stand for my people and the rights of the free peoples of the United States of America in any way that I am asked. I shall never accept defeat. I believe in God the almighty and I will not submit to the word of foreign governments that attempt to subjugate or alienate those rights or beliefs.
My family will stand with me in this, I stand for family values, not just in a sense of self propaganda, and I would stand and protect them and their rights upon my life. The only person I will bow before is God; let anyone challenge that; I will fight the good fight I will protect those who are unable to protect themselves as God is my witness.
You can knock me down again and again you can defame my name, you can cast me out but I will stand again and a hundred times again for what I believe.
If anyone has another opinion feel free to make it known.
Oh bugger; while not actually breaching the rules of the board I believe I should edit it.
This is a general chat area, where you just belted out a declaration of independence, That is that there fighting talk an all. I'm surprised you didn't sing the Star Spangled Banner in accompaniment
Apart from that, we want to avoid religion as much as possible. What your saying could be construed as harassment other than a retort. Its more of a statement with little option for members to contribute or join in as a conversation.
Kate I know you get annoyed when your posts get edited. You have to haul it in a bit though. Tell you what I'll give it 24 hours before I edit, it will give you time to make some changes on your own. After that if there are no changes the whole things goes. I know you can come up with quite spectacular conversation when ...Its suits you!
Ever thought of going into politics proper? That sort of rhetoric would win votes lol And I happen to know that more than one member of this board thinks you'd do well at it, even said they would vote for you... and its not me or Alan!
You will find this in a PM and email as well as this post.
Ja we must avoid as much religion bitte, also you are not chatting please contact Herr Horizon to activate membership of debate area for you, you understand there is place for this posting type it is not in this forum.
