Mrrzy, From what I can gather, from what you have said, I am one of the people you call silly people but I don't think that my beliefs are doing any harm.

I thought Bush was one of the dangerous religious people. I campaigned and supported Obama who I think is one of the NOT-dangerous religious people. I think that the right wing in Israel are dangerous religious people. I have written to politicians asking that my tax dollars not support them.

I support teaching Evolution in science class and religion class.

There are other things, but I do what I can when I can. I don't oppose anyone having any particular belief. I oppose them forcing their beliefs on others.

Smokey's point about the Sunday closings is interesting. I agree that anyone should have ability right to do what they want on Sunday, including work and shop, especially the Jews, Atheists and Seventh Day Adventists, but if a community decides they want everybody to have a single day of rest during the week, if the majority wants it, it is hard to argue with that.

I think that tolerance is important and that laws and rights should be enforced equally for all.
