    Does it allow you to change jobs if your current employer picks an option you are not satisfied with?

    What is to made of a person such as yourself? You have entered this thread as the self appointed smartest man in the room. However, for a couple of days you have continued in this circular argument with Skinny and Steve that is akin to siblings bickering over whether is it sun is yellow or orange. It would appear that you feel insecure in your own intelligence and thus bully others as way to mask that. I am not giving absolution to Skinny or others; however, they don't enter threads as the authority of all things.

    You should learn to stop hating yourself and find security in the knowledge you have, which might not be a knowledge in everything. That is ok. You are special just the way you are and we here at Patch love you for that.

    "CIA Dropped the ball" Sure and the IRS simply mislabeled a couple of folders.

    Can you see 3-D with your rose colored glasses?

    "I do, however, detest monolithic stupidity" - Unless it is Barrack Obama, in which case his omniscience, omnipotence and omnipresence is not only true in all cases; but if challenged liberal zealots such as yourself are willing to fight to the death.

    Again, you continue to help my cause. Thanks for playing.

    So, you hate my God, I am a racist and you hate Bush, thanks I had forgotten that from every other post you have issued in my direction.

    For being a MENSA man you sure are intellectually limited. However, thanks from proving my point.

    I had contemplated writing a blog along these lines as a 'Part II' to a blog I wrote in October of 2012. http://greendale.patch.com/blog_posts/who-is-responsible-for-the-deaths-in-benghazi

    If you read the comments in that blog, the liberals are saying the same things as they are posting here. In truth, the information that is uncovered is irrelevant. The liberal left of our country has determined that Obama is their greatest hope for re-writing our constitution. Regardless of the harm to the country, our freedoms or the view other countries have of the US; they will stand with their messiah until he leads them to the socialist promised land. Nothing else explains 1) The knee jerk reaction to blame Bush, Reagan or Right Wing Conspiracy 2) The blind eye turned towards Benghazi, the failing of Obamacare or the 1st amendment violations of the IRS 3) The complacent nature of the liberals to present inaccurate facts about gun violence, economy and taxation.

    Whether or not Obama is directly involved is almost irrelevant. There is almost no portion of this administration that is not corrupt and his unwillingness to weed out the that corruption makes him an accomplice to the crimes.

    What the majority of actions you included have in common is Muslim aggression and western response to that aggression. So not unlike today the threat comes from Islam and Christianity.

    Even if you include those battles against Muslim intrusion with the inquisitions and other Middle Ages land grabs (not specifically done for Christianity) the numbers remain no where near of the total killed by anti-religion nations of the last century.

    If religion is as bad as you say and it must be controlled, why hasn't religious killing in the industrial age reached the heights of secular killing?

    I never said religion hasn't played its part. I challenged your assertion that religion has committed more atrocities. Which you obviously have no retort. Considering that I could give you the entire Common Era and you would still fail to find the same numbers as those atrocities committed by regimes that were anti-religion in the last 100 years alone.

    I fear negative change. Our constitution is a secular document, that protects religion. However, as liberals continue to manipulate the English language in an effort to redefine the motives or our founders, they in turn find different meaning for the amendments. In many respects, the 1st amendment has already been bastardized to a point that it doesn't resemble the original intent. The change you are advocating is a continued perversion of that amendment and further intolerance toward religion. History has proven that as regimes push religion further and further out of the public square and into only churches and houses; it becomes increasingly more likely that persecution and greater levels of intolerance will result. This is what you are promoting, correct? That religion in the church or home is fine; however, if it is voiced publicly, it is only allowed if it matches your secular beliefs.

    The promise of secularism is the freedom from religious morals/values; however, in its place countries end up with fewer freedoms and a moral code dictated by the whims of it leaders.

    "The worst of the worst were committed by supposedly religious people." Stalin and Mao killed around 100 million people and were not committed to a religion, please find the equivalent in religious murder.

    "Moral cods adapt to the reality of the day and the understanding of the times." Making them completely useless. If morality can change in 50 years, as you are suggesting, what is the point? I should be able to live as I wish, because who knows, maybe in 50 years it will be acceptable. Meaning that I was simply restricted by an oppressive society. Everything that is claimed to be immoral, by your standards, is simply slavery to another man's desires.
