Codes on lapel badges. I can't help it.
Badges? We don't need badges. I don't have to show them any stinking badges.
Seriously, they invite the public to these events. You don't need a badge and you aren't crashing when there's a public invitation.

Don't y'all remember the words of Jesus from somewhere in the JW Bible?
"Wherever two or more are gathered in my name.......
......I will deny any responsibility for all of it." -

What Are Your Rights?
by Simon inrights seem to be everywhere nowadays.
say hello to someone in the wrong way and you've violated 101 of their human rights.
people imagine they have the right to all sorts of things - food, healthcare, housing, internet ... so many things are labelled basic rights and then you get onto their human rights - a favourite of the do-nothing bodies such as the un to declare.

I think the biggest problem in America (and apparently spreading to Canada) is the huge chasm between the left and the right. We used to be able to agree on some things and disagree on some things. Now, people talk from one extreme end and just piss off the people on the other.
Simon replying to OTWO:
"Yes, and the evidence is that the left has lurched hard to the left but the right has hardly moved...."
Thanks for making my point. -

There are no ideas on the left, there is only lack of thought.
Well, the government cannot take away my thoughts.
I think I have the right to deny such sweeping generalizations.

Dear Canada,
Exciting exciting news.
Either y'all will no longer have half empty halls because we are selling them, .....or the color of your new carts is gray instead of black.

by Roger Kirkpatrick inlast saturday morning, i answered a knock at my door to see a man standing next to a young boy who handed me a pamphlet posing the question, "how do you view the bible?
would you say it is (1) a book of human wisdom?
(2) a book of myths and legends?

Jack Phillips does stand behind his own principles. He said "'I don't create cakes for Halloween, I wouldn't create a cake that would be anti-American or disparaging against anybody for any reason, even cakes that would disparage people who identify as LGBT. Cakes have a message and this is one I can't create."
But he responded as an artist. Lets not pretend his cake would identify him as openly supporting gay marriage. He may feel that way, granted. But your comment that "They didn't want to decorate a cake with messages that went against their principles and beliefs" leads readers to believe more than that.
I don't know about others, but I can admire someone for their moral stand, yet disagree with them about it at the same time. People want a Halloween or Gay Wedding cake, offer to make them a cake. You can refuse to put inflammatory insults on cakes, but you should still make them a cake. If they wanted swastikas on a cake, say "You'll have to do your own message, but here's your cake."

What's the difference between me wanting steak from a restaurant that doesn't serve it, and a gay couple wanting a gay wedding cake from a shop that doesn't make gay wedding cakes?
The difference is that a shop makes individual ordered cakes and a gay couple is not asking for something not on the menu. There are no "gay" ingredients that they don't carry. If the couple want 2 grooms atop the cake, the shop could sell them 2 groom figures and say "We would rather not place them there ourselves, so you do it." "Doesn't make gay wedding cakes" is an excuse given for discriminating reasons.

Your "What if you had to ...." question strains reality, but in the spirit of the question, some have opted for Universalist because the members pretty much believe what they want. I would rather look for an eastern religion along the lines of Tao or Zen Buddhism that allows one to focus on the philosophies and leave alone any of the beliefs about God.

I think interning the residents born to that hostile nation was a no-brainer,
62% of them were U.S. citizens.
I won't see eye-to-eye with you on that one, so we'll agree to disagree. But at least you got my point-" ...the rights are an illusion. If you ever really need them then you won't have them. You have them only because a government choses to abide by the rule to follow and grant them."
