"There are many belief systems- if they want to believe that the earth is flat or that wine changes to blood whatever...that is their choice and has nothing to do with me they have a right to their own freedom and the right to be different."

Well,if those belief systems truly wanted to simply pootle along as they wish, and not dictate the way I or my friends choose to live our lives in any way, there wouldn't be an issue. Unfortunately, many people of a particular religious or political ideology don't just want to govern how THEY live - they want to govern how WE live - and this includes you, Conrad, and your bizarre folk zealotry. Stop telling us what to do. If you like what we do, participate in it. If you don't - bugger off and do whatever turns you on with your horn jackets. But don't tell me I have to engage with your creeds, or how you think I ought to engage with music on any level. Because, like as not, I will simply tell you to fuck off.
