  • Religious discrimination--the actual law

    Since there were many arguments in this forum regarding the actual EEOC laws about religious discrimination, I looked it up--here is the most relevant point from Title VII, which applies to employers with 15 or more employees, so the letter-writer's company would be included: ''Employers may not treat employees or applicants more or less ...

  • Dahlia Lithwick Uses Recipes to Write a Legal Column About..

    ... ABORTION. Lithwick's very idea that women do not have reproductive choice, if they cannot extinquish the life growing in their own wombs, is in and of itself faulty. I mean, my God, did the female have sex with the guy, or did she not? As to being ''for change'' in everything but pro-Abort American policies at home and abroad, not everyone ...

  • Government abuse of power

    South Dakotas law relating to doctor patient communication and abortion: This is just another method for people using and abusing government power. They attempt to control others and legislate morality by forcing their beliefs (usually based on their religion) upon all of society.

  • Lieing Hypocrites

    What an article. Talk about no research. Did the author just call up the JW PR department and copy down everything they told him? Yes, the Watchtower Society promoted the fact that the poor Witnesses in the African country of Malawi were being persecuted because they were told by the Watchtower not to buy a political I.D. card. If they did the ...

  • Democrats in Congress Failed Us All 8 Years

    The Democrats and Democratic Party failed to stand up for what is right for the entire eight years of the Bush / Cheney White House misrule. They gave away our American two-party system; they gave away majority rule; they gave away our civil rights and bill of rights and civil liberties; they gave away the constitutional authority of the ...

  • Proud to be Mormon

    Wow! This article really hurt my feelings. Politics is one thing and it seems that mudslinging within campaigning is tolerated, however some of the comments made in this article went beyond mudslinging at a cadidate and were more directed at the religion itself. I don't know what exactly qualifies Mr. Christopher Hitchens as an expert of my ...

  • What Mormons Believe!

    There is a great way to know exactly what the Mormons believe. Instead of asking all of their neighbors and enemies what the Mormons believe, why don't we take a look at it in their own words. I have looked at www.mormon.org and www.lds.org and by so doing have come to better understand that Mormons are true Christians with strong Moral and Family ...

  • Why I'm an American in Exile...

    On June 13th, 2007, I received a death threat from someone claiming to be a member of the US Intelligence community. What was my ''crime''? I blew the whistle on the election fraud of 2004. Why did the CIA feel threatened by this? Because I revealed how they smuggled cocaine into the US using a front company called ''Skyway Communications''. ...
