Italy school crucifixes 'barred'

Catholicism stopped being the state religion in Italy in 1984
The European Court of Human Rights has ruled against the use of crucifixes in classrooms in Italy.

It said the practice violated the right of parents to educate their children as they saw fit, and ran counter to the child's right to freedom of religion.

The case was brought by an Italian mother, Soile Lautsi, who wants to give her children a secular education.

The Vatican said it was shocked by the ruling, calling it "wrong and myopic" to exclude the crucifix from education.

How do you reconcile hating liberals with "love your enemies?"

It's a figure of speech. Of course I don't hate anyone individually. I do hate the way liberals think and act. That's all. It's a behavior thing. Like: I also love little babies and work hard to fight against abortion; but still, I can't stand to hear them crying all the time. It drives me nuts. Yapping, barking dogs also drives me nuts. But I love dogs. Also, I love homose-xuals, but hate homose-xuality...

Why do I "hammer" Islam? It's not because I hate Muslims...
Muslims are usually good honest people. But their evil Qur'an and evil Islamic religion drive them nuts. I don't hate any individual Muslim either. I do hate Islam, however. Why wouldn't I? It is evil for many reasons. In Islam the only sure way of getting to heaven is by dying in Jihad --by killing non-Muslims. Islam is the only religion that exists that lies that Jesus never even died on a cross. That is extremely important. So Islam exists solely as a diabolical opposition to Christianity, and to lead good innocent souls away from Jesus. For no other reason. Read: "Muhammad, Terrorist or Prophet?"

Former PM Margret Thatcher of England once said; The Problem with socialism is that you eventually runs out of other peoples money. She could have easily been talking directly to Obama on that one.

A Former Leader of The American Socialist Party -- (Norman M Thomas - Former President of the American Socialist Party) said in a speech in 1944; I no longer need to run as a presidential candidate for the socialist party. The democrat party has adopted our platform. The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of liberalism, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation without knowing how it happened.
