    It does seem a bit skewed,

    doesn't it?

    Come on now, doc. We may disagree in many areas but I have taken a lot from what you have argued

    over the years. That you don't seem to understand where I stand is always an issue. I can stand outside and watch

    and have opinions about what others do. But unless somebody is directly impacting my areas of rights and

    responsibility I will do nothing other than watch and form opinions. I have no right whatsoever to force any change

    on another person so long as they grant me the same courtesy. By the same token, I believe you are entitled to

    believe any way you like, so long as you do not try to force me to believe or act in the same manner. Personal

    rights and responsibility for ones actions is the very core from where I do everything. Often I embrace other

    thoughts and idea so long as they do not ty to change that core belief. Is there some form of winning or losing in

    that stance? Not from my perspective but possibly from the perspective of one who would try to force changes or

    their beliefs on me. I'm not competing with anybody so cannot win or lose.

    To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.
