 Can proselytizing be considered harassment or hate speech?
Or must we hear it as part of freedom of speech?


Madalyn Murry O'Hair got prayer out of public schools, which was excellent, so why can't we get god out of politics? Couldn't we use the same logic of removing faith from secular societies, and limit proselytizing to places that are faith based, or where the function of the religious group is limited to what the audience is agreeing to listen too?

Couldn't we have people like the Westboro morons leave a funeral because their religious beliefs are not in line with those of a person being buried?

Couldn't we damn the discussions on religion during the election campaigns unless they are in a church, and in a situation where religion of any kind is against the best interests of citizens who are not of that faith?

We've also got to get rid of "in god we trust" on coins and currency, and remove "under god" in the pledge of allegiance.

The zealots on the right need to be brought back to the reality of our lives, and make those things happen in order to claim our heritage.

Mostly the consensus is, "No" but a few stalwarts like the idea of using the police to silence groups they do not personally approve of.

6. Separation of church and state does not mean separation of religion and politics

Yeah, uh good luck with that.

Sounds a lot like Bush Administration era free speech zones.

I think you mean Democrat free speech zones.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

2. Not real sure how to answer your question

But I will say that I have not met one single person of faith who supports what the westboro people are doing because they are not really a religion, but more of an inbred cult.

I don't care if it's Christian, Muslim, atheist, Hindu, Buddhist, Judaism or any other religion.

Everyone has a right to speak for or advocate their religion to whomever they wish as long as they're not breaking any laws or acting in any capacity related to local, state or federal government.

9. Very slippery slope, that.

I would strongly advise not going down this road.

10. Why just religion? Why not any speech that I don't care for?

11. "limit proselytizing to places that are..." "limited to what the audience is agreeing to listen to"

those phrases put your argument to bed immediately.

That's not a hatchet job on the First Amendment; that's taking a Howitzer to it.

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”
