Homosexuals will no doubt win the right to marry at some point, when will Mormons win the right to practice their religion it it's purest form, you know having more then 1 wife etc?
I can see them making the argument, and to me it's as valid as that of homosexuals.
-
Its not as valid as the Homosexuals right, mormons can already marry, maybe not as many times as they would like but they still can marry, homosexuals cannot yet. Religion cannot dictate law, common sense and values do. Tje day we give in and run our countries by religious laws is the day we are all totally f***ed. I dont want Sharia law and i dont want christian law, i want laws based on common sense, rational and facts please.
Who the hell wants 6-7 wives anyway? Ones enough for me, imagine 7 wives nagging you to get the chores done, no thanks. If these fools want to believe in Mormonism or whatever religion then go ahead, let em. Hell even let them marry as many times as they want, i have no problem with that at all, thats their choice or their churches choice, gov should stay out of it, in the same way they should stay out of stopping gays marry. Let each individual church or place of worship or organisation, civil building that holds marriages decide if they want to allow it, if they do then fine. No probs.

Had me on all of the following important and humorous points.

08087 you must be a fascinating person, sadly I can't participate in any of your threads, since they are mostly fire bombs, so enjoy the thread.

They could try preaching in the Middle East, it is possible to have many wives there. However, I am not sure they would be welcome.
We've had mormons in Croatia for a long time, and in the past decade I regularly see young guys, 18-19 yrs. old, wearing name tags and old peoples' clothes, walking around the city, they are called "elders" or something. I was never stopped by them so I do not know exactly what they do or what their story is (unlike Jehovah witnesses). Watched a documentary recently about some magic underwear they use and things like that.. I know it is a "religion" in USA but it sounds just like another cult to me.
Btw. this documentary is OK if you want to have a good laugh. It is available on torrent sites: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mormon_sex_in_chains_case (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mormon_sex_in_chains_case)

But it is a valid argument in this sense, the church and state in the USA are supposed to be separate. If that is in fact true I can see the mormons or other religious faction making an argument for their rights under their religion.
Sentinex, I am a fasinating mind, what I do is comment on most of the thoughts that pop into my head. As you can tell I don't always think them through, but I like to hear what others think of my thoughts. And by the way, by commenting you did participate
So the mormon thing was just an example, what other religious faction will now step up and say they want to be recognized by law and get certain rights? The mormons were first to come to mind.

Wont happen, the law of the land over-rides all religious text. There would be mayhem if every religion wanted to live by their own religious laws, nothing could function.

This depends on the country. In Germany, for example, there is a church tax paid just by believers. In Hungary, there was an inflation of "religions" and lately they have introduced stricter rules what is a religion because people used to register religious congregations just to get money from the government. If I am informed correctly, the government in USA is not giving money to various churches, movements or sects.
In Croatia, the government gives money to churches in proportion to their size and number of believers. We also have a contract with Vatican and give to Catholic church around 55 mil US$ annually. This may sound as a small amount, but this is the only church that has this type of contract with the state, since 1998. To give more perspective, my country is a tourist country with 16 % of revenue from tourism. The money we are giving to Vatican is 50 % more than the budget of Ministry of tourism. Croatian scientific press, all magazines together, are financed with less than 2 mil. US$/year, 27 x LESS than money we DONATE to a guy in Gucci shoes with large white hat wearing gold stitched cape sitting on a throne claiming he has special knowledge about beings living in the sky above clouds. Am I missing something here? Is our science as an engine of the economy completely irrelevant compared to fairy tales?
However, we are the most catholic country in Europe along with Poland, Vatican is our lobbyist in EU, blah blah.

Bah! Hearsay is inadmissable as proof or evidence. Who cares, enjoy this life now, its probably the only one you'll ever get :)
Besides they cant ALL be the one "true" religion can they............sooner we all evolve outta relying on some magical spacegod the better.
Expect serious fireworks 08 if you go down that road, those conversations always end up in a shouting match.

Axy,
In the US, churchs pay little or no taxes, basically tax supported religion(s) of all persuations. We also have right-wing political movements shrouded as religious groups and preachers/rabbis/priests/etc. preaching political positions from the pulpit. Low lifes...
There is a very slow death happening within organized religion. Some religious groups use their "beliefs", with no scientific evidence, to hold down freedom for minorities of all kinds.
The sooner we move on beyond religion, the better.

take all this sh** to another web site.

They also have left wing preachers, don't forget them, they just don'tget the bad press.
Blue, Juice, why do you click on topics you find don't meet your scooter needs? The topic headings are pretty much right on the mark so you know what the deal will be before you click. If all you want is scoot stuff stick to the other parts of the forum. Today I posted on my recent fill up, did you read and or comment on it?

Bite me .
Wow, the guy goes from wishing me a hapy fathers day to a negitive comment on a thread to responding to a very normal well worded and intended question with, "Bite me".
Vivo, that should answer your question on are we "Civilized". At least some of us aren't. Does anyone know if there is an ignor option on this forum, maybe members like "Juice" can use it.
-
I believe that I have the right to post whatever I want on this forum . I have not attacked anyone by name , but my name has been used in several derisive posts . This seems to have become a vendetta . Just because Im not paranoid doesn't mean someone is not out to get me , or anyone else that dares to disagree with an opinion or question the motive for a non kymco related post .
-
Are you black?
-
You have used names.
Left wing preachers aren't heard because they're not as much fun to quote because they make sense and don't wind people up.
-
Too much funny sh** right there... Axy, can't thank you enough for posting the pict. of me, and your mom... It's been a long time since I've seen those eyes. Sorry about Xmas son. Maybe next year... "Just not enough love to go round."
Ce... We're all black here. Otherwise we would take our scoots to the shop.

Juice you do have a right to post anything youwant within the rules (I don't think anyone has broken them yet) but your passive aggresive ways screams that you need help.
Address what troubles you, saying bite me doesn't accomplish much but to inflame things, if that's what you want (it appears to be that way) then your doing a great job. All I did was make a suggestion iand used your name as I thought if certain peoples comments make no sense to you why not block their posts, or at least use ome restrint and not click on them.
No vendetta on my part, just looking for a way members can debate issues in an open and honest way. You still seem to think the only thing that should be posted on this forum should be Kymco related topics, yet the owners saw fit to add an anything subforum, so until they say otherwise, I and others will be posting off topic conversation.
I'm not sorry but I don't want to upset you either, so if you have a suggestion (short of others not posting topics of their liking) please offer it up. I can't be anymre gentalmenly then that.

Yeah right, what was it Obama's Rev. Wright had to say? Look it up!
What was Rev. Al and J. Jackson involved with, oh yes Tawanna Brawley, a woman that lied, about being gang raped by several white men and when she was discovered to be lieing not one of them ever apologized to the men that were named as rapests. Yes very God like in their actions and your right again, they don't wind people up, they just push the buttons. As B. Bunny would say, "What a Maroon".

I'll honor your simple requests when you start addressing issues head on, instead of leaving offhanded remarks meant to be abiguious in a hopes of protecting yourself from being man enough to direct your comment as any normal member does.
I'll be the one ot start and I won't name you from thhos point on, lets see if you can be direct in your comments and we'll proceed from there. Agreed on my part, how about you?

This is the result of inbreeding!!!!
