12. tired of the bully in your face , get out of my way evangelism
this religion has caused harm to this country--

They do have a rather shallow and cheap point on the surface of it all, but what they neglect to understand is that a person in responsible positions of authority needs to be a person showing respect and integrity--churches evermoreso in today's Bush climate have become legitimate, political vehicles for riding roughshod over others--obviously if they are defending Boykin and his comments, they are ignoring common decency and respect in favor of their zealotry and evangelism-it is similar to the prayer at football games issue-and that, as I have observed, can be very much the same type of bully mind set we see from the born again Bush--he actually enables this type of response. No one is going to tell these types of evangelistic bullies they cannot practice their religion-get out of their way if you do not like their face -and if a general in the US Army wants to hurt and harm others with bigoted remarks well that is just too bad-get out of his way -they will practice their religion and no one can stop them--
