I believe in the separation of church and state. There are a multitude of religions in Canada and it would be a sad day if any one of them should dominate the political landscape.

Agreed. No one religion should dominate the political landscape, but it shouldn't be excluded altogether either. Free market of ideas.

I wasn't aware that the N.D.P. was against abortion or gay marriage. :smile:

They're not. That is his point. Some how he thinks that to be a good christian you have to swallow all the organized religion garbage and not be allowed to think for yourself. Same as all muslims must be terrorists because they are muslims, right?

Jack decimated le Bloc once and for all. For that he deserves the respect of every last one of you Conservatives on these boards.

And don't ever damn forget it.

You don't have to be against things like abortion or gay marriage to be a Christian obviously, but there is reasons why a lot of Christians are.

There's reasons and possibly very valid ones why a lot of PEOPLE are, BUT that is just part of everyone having a right to his/her own opinion. I'm against MOST abortions for reasons I've made abundantly clear, but that doesn't make me want to be an enemy of those who disagree. As for Gay marriage....................why not as long as it doesn't affect anyone else? I've always had an issue with the term "marriage" but that is not worth making enemies either. :smile:

Alley, you have no class. How very Christian of you

Outspoken young whippersnapper! :smile:

The funny part is the strange brands of Christians believe in the same "End Times" the same way the Muslims do because Darby read the Quran and agreed with it.

As for abortion and gay marriage check out the last names ofthe majority those and their lawyers who lead the "my choice" and gay marriage movements. They aren't Chrisitian or Muslim names.
