    actually u r totally correct!!!! i moved here from michigan.. and yes there are christians in michigan, but it's completely different from being here in the "bible belt"

    This topic has strayed so far off course it won't ever find it's way back.....


    Everyone here knows my basic beliefs, it's no secret. With that said, I personally think that it's just a T-shirt. He bought it. He can wear it. If he was standing there preaching to my kids about HIS beliefs it would be one thing, but just walking by wearing a shirt???? That's dumb.

    Too often we worry more about what's on someone else's plate rather than making sure ours is clean. IF Paul had engaged her in a relevant conversation, then I would probably feel different. But he was merely standing there, so IMO she really has no business passing judgement w/o him opening his mouth.

    He was in a public place doing something that wasn't illegal. IF he wore something to MY house he KNOWS I or my family would find offensive, then he would not be being very much of a friend. But in a public place??? It is not anyone's business to opinionate unless he is purposely offending them directly.

    I gotta get back to work. Go easy on the "dumb cunts" Admin.
