Just don't have a heart attack today. It's supposed to be windy for the rest of the week.
Here's a crazy religous bunch we can all laugh at for a change...

I wonder if this is true. They either are ignorant and they think their child will be fine with enough prayer, or they are not ignorant and one can make the case they are guilty of manslaughter.
I'm surprised no one's given you an "Amen" yet.
Amen!
Sorry Fluff, but I see that quote as being rather intolerant as well. Forcing black and white situations where you can put people on one side or the other (us vs. them) is rather intolerant.
Which one?
1. You are with me or against me is not an example of intolerance, intolerance would be to say that those who are against you must die. If you can let be people be against you without it causing a problem then you are tolerating them, no?
2. Drop your family? Much the same really.
Separating people into groups is how you set up the playing field for intolerance. Though you are right that giving the choice itself might not be intolerant, the idea behind it in this case actually is because of what is implied. If you are against me, you go to hell. That's pretty intolerant. Or, for a modern example, you're with us or you are with the terrorists. If the latter, then we will put you in a cell for an indefinite amount of time and torture you.
I find telling one to choose Jesus over one's family to be pretty intolerant as well for much the same reasons.
THank you!
Just goes to show how many gays we have here at RM, huh? A bunch of guys who won't say Amen to tits? What is this world coming to?
Amen!
Lesbian.
My girl is showing me her's right now
Amen!

She's not just the founder of LPFC but also a member.
As long as they stay above the waste line without the aid of a bra, Amen.
in case y'all actually want to read about this issue here's a bit of reading from a site actually maintained by my school:

(cliffs notes: getting a court order to force a transfusion is sometimes necessary. otherwise the parents' wishes must be respected.)

Well, I am being pedantic, but then you are assuming I have some knowledge of the context etc. Asking people to make a choice is simply that, tolerance, or the lack thereof, is the next step.
That would be too rational.
That is true, but I'm saying that in this specific case, we know it's not just a simple choice. It comes attached with an "or else".
