Boazy "If such were the case, I would feel intensly 'imposed' on"

You may feel imposed upon when you can't force others to live by your rules but a fair minded understanding to being imposed upon would suggest that being imposed upon would be something like an extremist group banning mixed race marriages (something you want to be part of which some others don't like). You might be being imposed upon if athiests pushed for (and were sucessful in ) having private expressions of religious belief banned).

Both have been imposed by extreme groups in the past and are not that dissimilar to the type of imposing you promote against the choices of others.

You are not being imposed upon when others get to make choices about how they live their own lives you are just not getting your own way.

Boazy, I'd suggest that you take the little story about children you presented in defence of you homophobia and substitute a child with mixed race parents where you have a child with two daddies.

Take some time on it and see how comfortably your views fit when it is your own lifestyle choices, your own kids who's safety and freedom which are at risk because of the hateful and biggoted views of others.

I could draft a post that would have you heatedly on my side BOAZ DAVID.
I truly have concerns about the freedom of females in some Islamic country's.
I agree with every post after your last one a human is a human color sexual preferences nothing can change that.
EXCEPT religious biases.
My point over and over will be the same ,why should any religion have any power over us?
For me it is heartbreaking pain suffering even murder all in the name of too powerful but non existent Gods.
Enslaving of women in that name or Christian bigotry it is never the less evil.
