I believe religions enable a “Dark-Ages” type of thinking and behavior.
satinka
Without a doubt. All of them.

Well of course nothing is going to happen to the man on a legal or official level. That's a given. This is free speech.
But as many have said on the other thread on this subject, with that right of free speech comes at least implied responsibility. He knew exactly what he was doing, General Petraus had asked him previously not to. He chose to behave like a spoiled child and say "but I can! It's my right!". And all for what purpose? He should be chastised completely by any American with any sense exercising their free speech.

by snowbird ini was 14 years old and a high school freshman.. we were at school when we got the news.. girls began to cry, teachers wrung their hands, some of the more outspoken senior boys began to curse and throw desks around.. the guidance counselor quickly put a stop to that.. the principal called an assembly where we were implored to calm down and not act rashly.. it was a surreal day.. syl.

If you think about it, he would have had to be. If you can't support yourself and your family, you can't do much else. Poverty is a prison. Workers without rights are not much better than slaves. Look back on the coal miners and the Company Store. Or the garment workers.

I don't belong here anymore
by sizemik inthese are some things i have been thinking about .
.. when i first found this site i registered immediately ... never was a "lurker" ... and i've been here about six months.. everyone was very warm welcoming and i felt at home very quickly ... very pleasant at the time, but as time has progressed i look back and feel a bit "love-bombed" ... much like a religion i used to belong to.. i have found that this site is a bit "cliquey" ... groups of posters frequent at similar times and enjoy their familiarity with each other and that's great ... but they also sometimes exhibit a coolness toward those outside their clique ... almost as if your 'post count' is the first thing by which you are "judged" ... much like a religion i used to belong to.
some posters develop a personal dislike for others and not only jump on their threads but even deliver the odd "slap" on unrelated threads to increase the discomfort for the object of their dislike ... not unlike a religion i once belonged to.. some posters even follow others around the board looking to counter or use snide or clever put downs at every opportunity ... a kind of intellectual "rivalry" that was common to those in that religion i used to belong to.. many posters like to use 'in-house' jargon and labels eg; "newbies" for those recently joined.
