Thread Name: The end of religious freedom in the US
Subject: RE: The end of religious freedom in the US
Larry, I accept your right to your religious opinions. But this country would not exist if everyone had followed them. How did the quakers get the natives to relinquish their land?

1776, 1812, 1917, 1941

Where would you be now had people followed your principles? If you are willing to share in the fruits of your country and enjoy its protection, you should be equally willing to share in its upkeep and defense.

All men created equal, all with rights, all with obligations.
