All things dull and ug-ly,
All creatures, short and squat,
All things rude and na-sty,
The Lord God made the lot.
​
Each little snake that poisons,
Each little wasp that stings,
He made their prudish venom,
He made their horrid wings.
​
All things sick and cancerous,
All evil great and small,
All things foul and dangerous,
The Lord God made them all.
​
Each nasty little hornet,
Each beastly little squid,
Who made the spiky urchin?
Who made the sharks? He did!
​
All things scant and ulcerous,
All pox both great and small,
Putrid, foul and gangrenous,
The Lord God made them all.
​
Amen.
​
Sorry, the demon made me do it.

The ACLU should not be FOR the Bible.
​
And anyone who can call the Amish a freak show is simply a fool.
​
A finding that the Amish do NOT have to send their kids to public school would hardly count as an erosion of rights.

Re: I do not mean to speak for WT...
It would still have no bearing on the topic of the thread. The grant supported an artist, not the art. It would certainly not show any religious rights being eroded.
​
As with all the other examples given by WT, it is simply red gefilte fish.

I never claimed or said the present issue was a religious right erosion.
​
Perhaps it might be worthwhile looking at the title of the thread.

When I was a young man dating I suffered from Angoraphobia.

Re: examples of Religious Rights Erosion
You have not provided any examples of religious rights being eroded.
​
Please pick one example, only one, that might prove or support your unfounded allegations.

I would just like to get clear (as succinctly as possible) what those are.
​
Good idea. But I'll make a side-bet with you. If you can get one specific example, as soon as someone shows that it is not an erosion the response will be yet some other alleged erosion. That is all that has happened throughout this whole thread.
​
I say it's a waste of time and just close it.
