Well. he has been a member of that group for some time. He posts somewhat
regular. I read his posts. I have been told I know a thing or two about
Church state etc. If that is true, then I would have the ability to
recognize when someone else is intelligent and knows what they are
talking about.

On top of that I have done a little research on this topic as well

This needs updated with regards to the court cases since it was originally
written

Because it is a neat group with some neat people including one member who
is a Sep Church and State icon.

Most of those who participate there are pretty smart when it comes to
church state topics, history etc.


It isn't a free for all group at all, no personal attacks, no insults, etc
permitted. Being a Yahoo group you can read and reply from your email in
box and never actually log on to the group itself.

But your choice I am not going to lose any sleep over it

We are having a discussion. You don't like discussions? If you don't why
did you post in the first place?


We were expected to just take what you said as gospel?

There may be others who didn't agree with you. You have a problem with
that. Sounds like you are gonna take your ball and bat and go home.


Chill out and let the discussion proceed.
