  17. No, you still don't get it.   Could it be that you have just never met
  18. anyone who holds religious beliefs without wanting to impose those
  19. beliefs on others?  That would explain your confusion.

  21. As for a "public reference to religion" being extremism, don't be silly.
  22. Extremism is Pat Puke-cannon's declaration of "religious war" on those
  23. who don't agree with him.  See the difference?
