Have you ever BEEN to a Catholic school? I bet that 5-10% of the school is non-Catholic. They just teach better than the public school.

Hell, I went to a Catholic pre-school. My mother teaches at the same Catholic pre-school, even though she's a Muslim!

When you have read posts with my expressions being more unreasonable about Republicans, I am trolling to vent my frustration.

So rest assured, I do not have a SINCERE belief that Republicans are Satan incarnate.

I have a question for you then. If we cannot infer that this judge is a Christian, what possible motivation could there be in ruling what religion the parents can raise their child under? Motivation to ensure the child's safety? The article itself has already refuted charges that Wicca practices would harm the child in anyway.


So excluding that motivation, what other motivation could there be besides Christian fanaticism/fundamentalism?

Then according to this crazed judge, your parents were suppose to raise you under Catholicism and not Islam.

So are you implying that one forfeits their religious freedom if they choose to send their child to a private school of a different religion from theirs?

Funny thats the normal response. Either Reagan/Bush/Nixon/Thatcher/fill in the blank with your favorite conservative are criminally amoral or just out and out morons.

Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

Glad this is noticed outside of this town.

The Judge, Cale Bradford, is the chief judge in Indianapolis. He is a very powerful man here, and its going to be quite hilarious when the IN app. ct. slaps him around.

I have a great deal of respect for a lot of the things he has done, but this is just mind boggling.



lots of laughter around here, I work in the same building as he does. Lucky for me, he is not my boss.

I would like to apologize to the investigative committee for having scanned through the posts, and missed the post that already dealt with DD's post.


Given my apology, I would hope that my punishment for this mistakened transgression can be reduced.

It's not hate mongering to condemn religious fundamentalism/fanaticism.


It is hate mongering though, to tag all Christians with that label.
