[QUOTE]Originally posted by First of Two: [QB] There was once a short verse written my a man whose name escapes me, shortly after WWII, as I recall, and it went a bit like this: "First they came for the homosexuals, and I did not stand up because I was not a homosexual. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not stand up because I was not a Jew. Then they came for the Catholics, and I did not stand up because I was not a Catholic. Then they came for me, and there was no one left to stand up for me." So I stand. Admittedly, you seem to have learned the lesson that most cannot, and have the ability to say "I might be wrong," if not the full truth, which is "I don't know." Too many have not, though, for it to be safe, just yet. And by stating that you believe in such a way, to too many others you are committing heresy, if not blasphemy. I don't say what I say because I'm looking for conflict.. although that's an added benefit when you consider much progress can be made through conflict. I say what I say to puncture the balloons of the folks who think their religious value system is infallible. Why? No more Theocracies. No more Inquisitions. No more witchhunts. Never Again.
