Lots of people can tell stories. Worship the one Who can actually pull it off
I do I worship nature...I can actually prove it exists!

It's my understanding that observing a religious ceremony is participating in it. I don't go to church, so therefore I don't participate. If my butt was in a pew, I'd be participating.
My brand? No, Christ's brand. I do my best to follow that.Ahh, I see. So only your brand of Christianity gets one a ticket to the pearly gates?

And perhaps that confession provides a reasonable illustration of the inherent stupidity of posting articles without knowing who - or more importantly, what - the author actually is ...I don't know what a Pamela Geller is.
If presence equals participation, there'd be no uneducated students.
One doesn't need to attend church to worship, and vice versa. We tend to think otherwise, because we have freedom of religion, but not everyone who attends church is a believer, or follower of the doctrine.

Might depend on which specific definition of the word "observe" you were using:It's my understanding that observing a religious ceremony is participating in it. I don't go to church, so therefore I don't participate. If my butt was in a pew, I'd be participating.
She's not a journalist ... she's just a whack-a-doodle neocon hate-monger with a blog ...Now how are we supposed to know who's who in journalism?

Participating in school, and participating in a church service are two different things. One you have to do cause it's the law. The other you don't have to do, unless you're a Tulsa, Oklahoma police officer.

Faith requires no proof, that's why it is called faith. The Christian faith cannot produce evidence through the scientific method. Why would you expect any religious faith be something other than what it is?

Christ says it, therefore it's true., I do have a problem when people are arrogant enough to think their way is the only way. Their way is the only way? Prove it!

Your statements indicate you don't know Christ. God/Christ is not tolerant. He is a jealous God. He did associate with singers, because that's Who and what He came for--to seek and save the lost. He encouraged everybody to rely wholly upon God the Father.Christ often associated with sinners and non believers. He was tolerate of most, and reached out in friendship to all. He tried to encourage the weak to stand on their own and instructed the strong to HELP. I saw no bigotry in what Christ said. Just sayin.
