I would never make fun of anyone expressing their opinion .... even if they do no see things the way I do. I believe in prayer, but not offended if you do not. After all isn't this what America is all about, being free to express what you believe. Politics always comes into the picture, especially for metal detecting. Why? Laws are being passed in the political arena to try and stop or at least hinder our favorite past time. We cannot eliminate politics from this forum completely. Religion cannot be eliminated completely either. In example this whole thread is about whether or not asking or requesting prayer should be allowed. You cannot totally eliminate either one religion or politics. I would just think that everyone would have enough respect and tolerance that asking for prayer should never be an issue no matter where you request it. Even on this forum. I mean simply use a little tolerance for other peoples views without getting uncomfortable or upset or offended. If a person is an atheist to some extent that is going to come out in his posts, why because that is what he is. You can't expect him to always leave that part of himself out. Same if you are religious.
A little tolerance goes a long way. Strange it is once religious people were asked to be tolerant now it is religious people asking for tolerance. Interesting.
Could not agree more! Great post!
