You must first be convinced you need the pill quickly to prevent your death. I do not have the time or ability to prove it to you, Should I just turn my back on you and not tell you that you may have a deadly disease that you don't believe you have?
Just kidding, Ron, although, such things have happened.
But seriously, YOU tell ME when you will have reached your limit of what is obligatory to God, for you to do about my situation as you see it. Do you want my real name? My email address? My phone number? My address? Where do YOU draw the line? That's the point here. What does your ideology require of you?

Atheist want the federal government to forbid it, even though they claim to be for free speech. 😏

This is one aspect of a self-reinforcing ideology.
Incidentally another aspect is that any criticism of the ideology shows that its enemies are evil or are in the service of evil.
Originally posted by FMFI wonder what it is in my observations that would lead you to think otherwise. They are my observations about self-reinforcing ideologies. He can say what he wants about the subject, within the law, and in this case within the RHP rules.
Ouch! But you also support RJHind's freedom of speech, yeah, right? 😵
