Human nature. Forcing one side to disarm invites even more vicious treatment at the hands of the previous victims. Missionary religions are an even bigger problem, as they see it as God’s law, not man’s law, that they convert the unbeliever for the sake of both their souls. Better to do away with the Religion Forum altogether.

Absolutely and vehemently disagree. Conservatism uniformed and restrained by religion is the tyranny of the most base emotions of a mob with no moral beliefs, or worse, a tyrant ruling at will. Expunge the Judeo-Christian religion from conservatism and you expunge our sense of justice. Turn to atheism and you invite every injustice mortal men can invent for their own purpose.

It is a difficult issue concerning fairness, but your answer may as well strip conservatism of principle. No principle, no conflicts. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

How awful that some want to bring souls to faith in a God worth believing in and defending, while doing away with the Religion Forum altogether is inconsistent with this being officially a pro-God (of the Bible), protraditional America site. In case you did not know.
