Why has this turned into a religion post. Did he say something about that?

Why does someone professing a personal belief in God bother you?

Same as politics. Divisive topic.

Really....I really don't get that. People get too upset over what other people think or believe. Hell, I had a sister unfriend me on facebook because she's an ultra liberal and the night of the election I said "the people have spoken, they said "we're morons".

It's only divisive because some people just don't have the maturity to handle the fact that not everyone agrees with them all of the time. As a result, they try to keep them from exressing their opinion or attack them when they do, instead of having respect for others and being tolerant enough to let them express themselves.

You seem to lack the maturity to see that others might find this divisive. In essence you are doing what you are accusing others of doing.

No, I haven't tried to keep anyone from expressing their thoughts, opinions or beliefs, no matter how silly it makes them look. Everyone should be entitled to make a fool of themself if they so choose.

This forum isn't the place for political or free speech debates. I'm sure the cyber-world has many such more appropriate outlets for that, so I won't be continuing this topic any further.

It is only divisive if you yourself are intolerant.

This cracks me up. I am tolerant of all religions and people. God had nothing to do with this. Religion is always a divisive topic. Just because you happen to agree with his religion doesn't change that.

Hmmm........you know "bold" above for a fact GT? My faith tells me He has pretty much everything to do w/everything! You can believe what/who you want to believe ---- I will do same. Tolerance?

Sure. I could care less what you believe in. If I did I would go to a different forum to talk about it. Sorry if this is getting blown out of proportion but I am pretty sure most of you don't know the meaning of tolerance or divisive. Someone else brought up God. Not me. I believe in praying to magical jelly beans and that they will provide my family with money and people who don't have money didn't pray to the magic jelly beans enough.

I'm sorry..but I find the notion that the simple mention of a belief in God is "divisive" to be quite silly.

I accept your apology.
