[QUOTE="caojyn, post: 2362197, member: 5425"] If it's as good as Locke's Second Treatise I'll definitely read it, but I can guarantee that it's not going to convince me that a religious group should be able to post their religious teachings on the state capitol while at the same time denying other groups the right to do the same. Let's not forget this isn't JUST about Satanism vs Christianity, they're just the first to test the double standard. It really boils down to "in a country that advocates religious freedom, should [b]my[/b] tax dollars be paid to maintain (since it was donated) a monument to religion(s) that aren't necessarily mine," and of course the answer is no regardless of the source/content of those teachings. But this is oklahoma, the buckle of the Bible Belt, and as 1 member already put it, he's all for religious freedom except for certain religions. [/QUOTE]
