Wow ...... I can't believe my first post is concerning the Bible .... well here goes ....
AMonger I understand the point you're trying to make, but I disagree with how you're trying to make it. The main point in the Book of Daniel is NOT disobedience. In my opinion, it IS about being obedient to God under all circumstances.
If you want to protest some type of overregulation .... great! Just please be careful not to take passages out of context to fit a specific point of view ....

It's a place where it's ok not to be normal! ..... but God still does rule over all.
