It's quite simple as that and to state (or demand) otherwise is no better than say radical Muslims who believe everyone should believe as they do.  I have a major issue with that, no matter what your foundation or religion.]]></content></entry><entry><title><![CDATA[Boomshank @ 3/30/2008 8:54:47 PM]]></title><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.plime.com/plime-com/l/56312/1/atom0_3.rss#q7" /><id>229388</id><summary><![CDATA[<div class='qp pad d'><a class="page-dull td" href="/plime-com/l/56312/1/#q6"><b>&laquo;</b></a>&nbsp;<i><b>dollyllama</b> : Where did it say anything about morals?
