Lance,Lance,Lance....oh, how long must we strive with you to understand??? The Word of God says to treat your parents with respect. It's one of the Ten Biggies. Period. So is that a sincere question?
NOW, think about it, Lance. HOW does God "respect" people? He allows them to have free will! God allows everyone to either come to Him or reject Him. That is called "free will." That is how we respect others: we allow them free will to believe whatever they choose. In America it means you may attend church, synagogue, mosque, or nothing at all. It means that we treat each culture as equally valid, that God-created differences are good, and that variety is valuable as long as it is not against God's standards of right and wrong. You may pray in school, or not, as you wish. (I wish!) You may go to hell or get saved. HOWEVER, does that mean we don't tell those people the Truth??? Does that mean we pretend that when they are lost that that they are just peachy with God? Do we tell them that their pagan god is just as good as our God? Does that mean we allow perverts to molest children? Does that mean we should make sodomy perversion an acceptable standard for our nation? Does that mean we look the other way when the unborn are murdered? Lance, you pride yourself on your intelligence. Please use it.
