I have no concern about how any of that will affect me personally or society at large.
What's really troubling to me are the politicians that get elected and then decide to make unconstitutional laws that will affect me personally and society at large.

Bangee5 and MisterWilson , I posted, without comment, a video I found on the web.
Nothing more or less.
I left comment to others as they saw fit.
However, MisterWilson, you say,
"I have no concern about how any of that will affect me personally or society at large.
What's really troubling to me are the politicians that get elected and then decide to make unconstitutional laws that will affect me personally and society at large."Why is posting this video any different than someone posting a video clip of a politician for comment on it?
And why is your comment on it the be-all and end-all of comments when there are clearly comments both for and against even at this early stage.
And Bangee, how does my posting a video make a vendetta against christianity?
I see you posted a condemnation and judgment (which you seem to do ably and often) of my posting a video while you did not hesitate to post a defense.
I agree with you that the church members have a right to attend his church as they wish - I never stated otherwise.
"You can have your "Feel-Good" religion and shame on you Remoman."How do you know what my belief is or are you just uncomfortable if others are not exactly like you?
Does it matter if the pastor and his church is affiliated with any or no denomination, why?
I seem to bother you when I bring up subjects that you seem to feel are off limits.
Could that be because questions like these make you uncomfortable and cause you to question the bedrock of your beliefs?
See how easy it is to make assumptions about someone you do not know, as you have done about me?
Would you say that you, as I do, find the methods and tactics of Westboro Baptist Church are appalling and anti-christian or would you argue against that and say that since I made that statement, I am attacking christianity?
Could it just be possible that those that identify as christians have an obligation to speak out against those using christianity while not really following the tenets that Jesus set down?
Or am I just attacking christianity if I say that?
