Most immigrants,... do try to hold to their heritage, but eventually become integrated to the place they live...
This is historical fact...

The exception, if there is one, would be us...  
Puritanical, Fundamentalist, Christian faith... we imposed it on the Native Americans, Hawaiians, Aboriginals, Mexicans, South Americans...etc...
Why do you think Christianity is the largest religion?...
We came, we saw, we baptized... ...
Under threat of death...

...and now we worry?...
Sometimes,.. it's good to be an atheist... ...

Don't be so fearful... once the children of Muslim immigrants discover beer, McDonald's, net porn, and  Pizza,... they'll be as American as can be...

Fear of radicalized religion is passe'...  
The trend is towards apathy...
Religion is dead...  
Even in America,.. religion has become more a socialization than a belief...
Friends, activities, business contacts...
Christianity is something we do, because we should...

I don't do anything I'm supposed to... ...

Don't be so fearful... once the children of Muslim immigrants discover beer, McDonald's, net porn, and  Pizza,... they'll be as American as can be...


How ironic such a statement, and I will venture to say, since you uttered it, you don't see it.....

Impeccable logic; however, my ancestors did not participate in any of the aforementioned atrocities.

Best regards,

how funny and ironic..... Our politically correct auto-editor changed the word "Pen!s" to thingie.....   Guess the truth is too much!

Yes, Mr. Jenner still has her thing.....  Is she's more of a man or is that white lady more black?...  aw.... welcome to Sew and Hovis's world...

Progressive culture has it's problems,... but you have to look at the alternative...
Fundamentalism beckons a new Dark Age... where we deny science and fear people that are different...

Those things are simply not true. You are pulling fragments out and extrapolating them to far larger portions than they are.

But regardless, you are right and I am wrong. The modern world favors your views and not mine. For my grand daughter's sake, I hope it turns out peaceful, I hope your world offers her peace and happiness.

Like some people do when they reckon 'far away' Europe is being Islamified and taken over? .....

Teaching Creationism along side evolution in schools?...

First off; that does not happen in every school, even in predominantly Christian areas and number 2; there are enough questions about evolution that deserve asking.

Denial of climate change?...

You ‘believe’ global warming because scientist have told you so but every single predictions they’ve made has been wrong and on the high side.  Some major scientific names deny it or at the very least, do not think it is as significant or imminent as portrayed (which is what I think). The bigger questions is why do you not question it?

Defense of Marriage Act?...

I don’t see how it’s unreasonable to question changing what is arguably one of the most fundamental aspects of all historical societies. Are you smart enough to predict what the outcome will be on future generations if the understanding of what marriage is, is altered? I’m not and I don’t know anyone who is. But again, your kind has won this. That horse has left the barn. Marriage will be re-defined to include any two (or more) people who declare themselves to be a married. That’s quite a change that’s never occurred in all of human history that I’m aware of.

Blocking abortion and birth control access?...

Absolutely I would abortion. As demonstrated on here and other places, you and others will run for the hills rather than an indepth abortion debate. You have no leg to stand on. Killing a baby because it’s an inconvenience for you is wrong. Yea, conservatives are right to fight this to the bloody end.

Birth control; again, who are you (or who is Obama) to simply wipe away centuries of religious objection? How is it possible that Obama can unilaterally say to the Catholic Church “so what? to 500 years of your  beliefs. They mean nothing to me”.

Hastert's problems stem from his religiously imposed shame and denial...  and created molester of students...
Ted Haggard lived a life of lies and shame and betrayal...
...and then there's all those priests...

Openly gay teachers never molested children? You think if we embrace whatever lifestyle you have in mind for gays that suddenly perverts will leave children alone?

I have a 5 hour drive in front of me so will check back later. I would like for you or others to explain to me why they are so sure gay marriage will have either no impact or a positive impact on society. And I'm sure you won't but if you want to tackle abortion go ahead.

Cut to the chase.....

My thoughts and beliefs are the only truth, or I would not entertain them. I have viewed the world though that prism, and it holds its spectrum, as it did for those who taught me....

Sorry to suggest that life is subjective, and everyone is just as entitled to theirs, as I am mine, only I will use all the resources I can to not prove you wrong, no, but to prove that I am right....
I won't call it war, I will call it education, even if forced....
Muslms, indeed, how dare they!
