But to advocate foregoing a matter because of your christian beliefs is wrong.

"A man's wisdom gives him patience; it is to his glory to overlook an offense" - Proverbs 19:11

From the ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct:

Counselor Rule 2.1 Advisor

In representing a client, a lawyer shall exercise independent professional judgment and render candid advice. In rendering advice, a lawyer may refer not only to law but to other considerations such as moral, economic, social and political factors, that may be relevant to the client's situation.

Again, you are not giving your client the best legal advice from his perspective, but from yours. Your are inserting your interests into the clients situation, and i think that is wrong.

didn't you used to have the name "lighted candle"?

Is this the reason it is now something different?: "Free Republic is a noncommerical site. Please do not post advertising, solicitations, spam or any other commercial messages. Do not spam us with links to your own site. No one likes spam. "
