Those of us who believe in a free republic ought to speak up and defend the right of Camping and anyone else to do so.

Speaking as an atheist, I agree. He's free to spout whatever nonsense he likes, and people are likewise free to believe his blather.

Yep. That people are clamoring for some legal hammer to come down on Camping is the biggest danger in this whole thing.

In a free marketplace of ideas, other Christians are free to point out that scripture says no one knows the day.

The mob-like reaction against the Camping church sends chills up my spine.

It's like the Florida pastor that burned the koran. As long as the koran they burned was their own property, the are free as citizens of a free country to burn that koran. But there was a practically a lynch mob forming to go after that Florida guy.

By the way, I'm in the middle of reading Ann Coulter's Demonic and the clamor by people to use the government to squelch Camping or that Florida pastor could almost be an example of mob thinking from her book.
