Computer Geek / Network & Systems Administrator. I have been in computers my whole life and have dabbled in different programs and some web design. I like movies, music, dinners, cooking, hanging with friends, although I am more of a homebody. I like to debate my views with other people in politics, religion, equality, health care reform, and several other topics. I believe in equality for all, and not just some. We have the freedom of religion and the freedom from religion. No religion should dictate our laws, nor should we ever write any discrimination into the constitution. I also believe that just because the majority voted for something, doesn't mean it is the best thing for this country. Americans need to quit selling out their fellow man and demand that NAFTA be fixed now, or just needs to go away, period. America needs to take care of itself before its to late. We need health care reform now. We should never leave health & human services in the hands of the free market. We should never allow anyone to profit off the suffering of others.
The United States Constitution, you have to love it. Not only does it guarantee us our freedoms we enjoy and that many good citizens have died for to protect, but it also is there to protect us from our own self-righteousness.
I have heard many times before that the atheists, agnostics, and the Muslims are taking away the right to practice our religions. You see and hear this on TV, certain websites, and many, many blogs.
Is it really true it’s those non-believers that are fighting hard to take this right away, or is it the religious themselves the ones destroying this right guaranteed by the constitution?
The reason why I bring this up is because of the fear and propaganda I am hearing about the current president of this great nation. I have heard time and time again that he is a Muslim and he is out to destroy us.
When we accuse this man of being a Muslim, are we not taking away his freedom of religion? Are we not demonizing someone else’s belief and telling the world his belief should not be allowed or accepted? Are we not telling people that we should not have the right choose which religion, if any, is ours to choose?
Whether or not this man is a Muslim, I think those that are making him out to be this evil Muslim, are destroying not just his freedom of religion, but every other American in this country.
So the next time you want to disrespect the belief of another man, think twice and give us a good reason why your beliefs should be respected in return.
