Why is moving forward in the conversation some sort of Christian doomed side-ism? I took the time to see the other side of the equation and admitted my complicity in the problem. I was attempting to open up the topic to allow for discussion of how to allow for the plurality of beliefs and freedom of action can have an equanimity of outcome or whether equanimity of opportunity, with it's inherent social contrivances and restrictions of freedom is better. It's certainly better than nothing, but I've never really prescribed to the lesser of two evils strategy. I'm not really certain where you got the idea I thought anything was poisonous.


@arewethereyet I wasn't attempting to play word games or deceive anyone. Perhaps there was a miscommunication from this particular medium. I would really like to know what made you think this if you're willing to point it out to me or discuss it.
You worked way to hard at trying to convince that leading a prayer before a game is okay in an environment that isn't religion based.  You want us to say that you are well within your rights as a Christian to evangelize as you see fit...even, and especially, to other people's kids without the parents' prior knowledge and consent. You even wanted to rename your prayer circle a huddle.

Your BS remark about Hijabs is just so much fluff.  I see women in Hijabs all the time around where I live.  Not once has one of them approached me to convince me I should face east and pray with them.  

As I stated, my opinion of your honesty has fallen significantly since I came here last year and that opinion is not just based on this 'poor me I'm persecuted' thread.
I'm your huckleberry.
