Religious discrimination 5

I have been following this thread and scratching my head. I see complaints about receipt of sacraments. A sacrament, and other core beliefs, are the very bedrock of a religion. In order to participate, you must be a member. That appears to be a reasonable and simple rule.

If you go to Canada, and there is an election going on, you must be a Canadian citizen to be able to vote. The same is true in Mexico. Basic law and basic common sense.

I had an acquaintence who had a child turn Mormon and was married in the Mormon Temple in Salt Lake. Only Mormon's can enter the temple. The parents could not attend their child's wedding. Rather harsh and heartbreaking, but that is the rules. Follow them or turn Mormon, I guess.

As far as discrimination, the Iron Verdict of History shows that no religion has suffered more discrimination than Christianity. Second place isn't even close!

Ah, so its balance you seek to provide to the discussion, as usual. Thanks. As far as the Iron Verdict of History goes however, I didn't think the issue of religious discrimination was supposed to be a race for first place.

Happily, discrimination against Christians in the US today would seem to be limited to "The War on Christmas" and other manufactured nonsense.

If I were Jewish, I may ask the Iron Verdict of History for a recount.

The Verdict is not necessarily just. All it does is state the result. Like it or lump it, there it is. The Verdict, in that respect, cannot be refuted. Nor can it be changed.

If you are talking about the Roman Empire before Const. then you are making some sense. . .if you are talking in the modern sense, then the idea that there is widespread christian 'discrimination' is simply laughable.

Well let me see. What about the French Revolution, the Mexican Revolution, the USSR, behind the Iron Curtain, the Spanish Civil War Republican Zone, Red China during the cultural revolution, France under the Third Republic, and on and on. That is just from some of the atheists in modern times. The Moslems have done their share over history.

Hey...he's only made a few new tanks. So the luftwaffe has a some new planes...whats the big deal. That group of Jews rounded up...he's cracking down on a few bad apples. Sounds ridiculous doesn't it. Right now in the U.S, it might be slightly more than "The War on Christmas" hell...its only Christmas. http://www.jeremiahproject.com/prophecy/warxian.htm l
