I noticed the professor knows what it is too but she's out taking a powder instead of answering also.

Oh, I will not deny it, Judaism has had a huge impact on Western morality and it is why we have had to have the Civil rights, the woman's rights and the LBGT rights movements. We are evolving, we were enlightened!

Not all things that are promoted by religion are moral or good.

I'd disagree. Our Greek heritage has far more to do with that.

It was an answer for Rabbid, you and I would have an intellectual conversation on the subject which would include The Greek philosophers, lol

Yes, I know. Just trying to spark such a conversation in a otherwise failure of a thread.

The Greeks even had an influence on Paul whose influence was huge on Christianity.

Oh all Christianity (well, modern Christianity) was affected by the Greeks. Some would even argue that the individualism emphasis was what the Greeks contributed to the religion.

Exactly, that's what you're trying to get rid of, the time tested laws of Moses.

Which is why you lefties make such a big deal over a football coach leading his team in a prayer after a game. If I didn't know any better, I'd call you all a bunch of wimps who complain over nothing but I do know better and I do know how evil you are and how persistent you are with this relentless attack of yours on our first amendment freedoms.

Do you suck left wing progressive ass for a hobby?

One cannot understand western civilized history without it's knowledge of it's moral base starting point .. the laws of Moses.

One cannot understand, comprehend, and begin to understand western literature itself without the acknowledgement of the civilization's starting point at it's base, the laws of Moses.

Don't give me Greeks pegged pants, everything western society had accomplished including the Greeks and their ideas about Democracy rests on the Laws of Moses as it's foundation.

You and your religious bigotry can insult me at will .. tailgate party philosopher surrounded by your dudes, you're not going to revise this and get away with it with me here.

Uhhhh no....I don't know what history books you've been reading (If you read any at all), but no.

Since the Greeks developed independently.....no.

I'm sorry if you cannot accept the words of Azathoth, god of all creation.

A football coach leading a prayer after a game is a very serious issue for you and it should be a non issue if schools belonged to the communities where they reside and not the government.

Except the school would still have controlling interest and has every right to determine the content of their sanctioned activities or those that take place on their grounds.

And no, it's not serious. At all. I couldn't give fewer fucks if I was paid to do so.

By your comments you must have flunked biology or it was never offered in your school, talk about being dumbed down.

Praying for the outcome of a football is ridiculous, anyway, use your prayers for the end to world hunger or for peace, not one stupid high school football game. Pray for those players to be decent young men after the game. They don't need to be lead in prayer by the coach, they can pray silently or have a student lead the prayer.

I take it you didn't read the article......the school board admitted that the prayers were student led, but banned them anyway.....like you, they've forgotten that the constitution protects the free exercise of religion, not freedom from religion.......

If a player left, how would they be perceived by other players for not praying for the ill brother?

probably not nearly as bad as he's now being perceived because his family contacted the school board and demanded all his teammates be stopped from doing what they had a constitutional right to do....
