Religious Liberty Quiz

I started out to answer the items individually but it's a waste of time.The bulk answer is: You have a right to practice your religion. You do NOT have a right to impinge on anybody else's rights. When I'm at the mall, I have a right not to hear you blathering. Somebody may be pulling your leg.

In Canada, Sikhs, etc. in the Army have the right to wear their religious headgear, apparently even in combat roles. Our former Defense Minister, Harjit Sajjan, was an Army Colonel. But religious organizations already have tax-exemption rights. Why should they be able to take funds out when they don't put them in? That's an odd question. How much demand is there for "a religious right to obtain an abortion"? And making rape an exception has always bothered me. Why does it make a difference? Apparently you're unaware of the last few hundred years of history. "Whose land it legally is" is very much in dispute.

Yes. EVERYBODY has the right to veto the Great Commission. That's the "free will" that you keep touting. I, for one liberal, do not want to cancel out anybody. I INVITE you to blather your nonsense (here, where it's appropriate). I DO NOT want to silence you. I just want to point out how stupid your ideas are.

Same reason why you would crucify Jesus if He was alive today - you don't like His message. And He offends you, which is why you deny Him and make up a right-wing substitute.

Liberal mandates would feed you, shelter you, clothe you - regardless of how you got into that condition.

Rob the poor to suit the rich. Nobody but you is talking about " wrecking the middle class". Helping the poor will benefit everybody. Appeasement? You manage to make everything sound bad.

It isn't that I "fail to understand". I flat-out deny it. It's a bloody lie that the rich tell you while they're stealing your eyeballs. Who's this "us"? YOU are the only one here complaining about a "burden". Practically everybody here is as middle class as you and they're all trying to tell you that you're being deceived by the right wing. It isn't about "applause". It's about heaven and hell.I think I have mentioned this before: My father used to say that we make our own heaven and hell on earth. You're content with making life hell for the poor.

Think of the money you would save on welfare. Think of the money you would save on policing. Think of the money you would save on addiction programs.Helping the poor is an investment, not a burden.

You unionized workers at Safeway are already making more than the workers doing the same job at non-unionized stores. And they're making more than the people who can't get a decent job or a decent place to live. And yet, you claim to "need" a cost-of-living increase. Why should people care about your livelihood when it's already so much better than their own? It can be improved through funding.

Well, those are the ones we've been talking about. You seem to be just as outraged at them. I hope your union isn't stupid enough to think that more guns will make you safer. If they are, and if you have have half a brain, you'll tell your union to stop that lobbying.

And yet you've mentioned it twice. Why not stop the evil at its source? As I said before, the drugstore where I worked reduced their response to shoplifters:

It doesn't work for the thousands of homeless and hungry. It doesn't seem to work very well for you either, judging by your constant complaints. I didn't suggest any such thing. I said that since you make more than many other people - including people doing the same job as you - you have less to complain about than they do. If you had a clue what socialism is, I'd take that as a compliment.
