There's a little saying that goes practice what you preach....my bad that would sound like we were bringing some form of religion into it........the one thing you guys want to keep out of it.

We're talking about legal issues, not religious. But, that's beside the point I was making. I'm saying that I, too, am a Christian and no less of a Christian than Lovespell.
I have a suggestion to all the Christians that are posting in this thread. Consider what Jesus did throughout his time on earth. He was concerned with people making the right choice to follow him. He never forced his lifestyle and beliefs on anyone (he did have a strong physical reaction to bad things happening on Holy Ground, however!!) But, if asked, he would surely tell the people what was right and true. For us, as Christians, to deny people the choice to live as they please and try to push them toward our way of life is counterproductive. Do you really think that a thief, for example, would respond better to, "You deserve jail time for breaking the law!!" or to "No one is perfect, let me tell you about the one who can save you." The minute you put restrictions on what people honestly believe is right (I'm talking about things that don't directly hurt you - not murderers, rapists, etc. - that's a different subject) you lose them.
