- figures - they spelled Craig's last name wrong in the link - DR needs to hire some better editors...It's not Meyer...

Absolutly disgusting.

That article is now fanning flame of religious dissnetion, as it did with racial bias.

Craigs letter was one extreme view...as is Irelands.

Are they right??? I won't waste time pondering the question....

Because it's not a question of religion or race dag nab it!!!!!

But the rags like the Record, Citizen and Community News all need to sell papers, and these reporters need to have something to write about that is interesting.

Man...didn't you know that they would eventually turn to this forum to gather junk to sway opinon in the spinmiester ways????

Craig....I'm not coming out against you...but shudder when you go so far off on a public forum , and post your full name and address....Fella...there are wackos out there!

Exteme views may be valid, and you are entitled....but extremes just polorize people, and the actual issue becomes muddled.

This is not about religion....don't make it that way. Don't create animosty where there is none.

If Ireland wants to divide the town using race and religion to do so...make him do the dirty work....
Don't give in to his work
Stay the coarse.....
Let him take the low raod....Rockaway is a good blend of people with all religions coexisting.... Don't let Irelend "F" it up.
Don't stoop to his level...Ignore the likes of Matt/Todd/Ted/Russ when it comes to rabble rousing BS.....

State your case and move on....

Mark,

Please keep in mind that I did not ask to have an article written.  Those expressions on this bbs are just my views which you have seen.  I still maintain those views.  That does not make them valid nor worthy of an article in the newspaper.  However, my views remain unchanged on this topic.  What am I supposed to do, go and hide?  That will never happen.

I was basically responding to some of the Vitreol that I have seen by cc supporters on nj.con and this venue as well on that subject.  I find their views about people like myself and our souls destiny to be despicable. 

I doubt that too many other people really care, however about my opinion on this. Yet, it will not stop me from expressing it.

I hope that you understand.

Funny, though, he doesn't report about the evangelical drivel...

Or even that it was in a heated discussion about the final destination of Craig's soul...

It is my opinion that reporters like juicy stories and newpaper owner like to sell papers.  Responsible papers resist this natural tendency in favor of being fair and factual.  Lesser papers sacrifice journalistic responsibility in order to sell papers.  Unfortunately the daily record has chosen to take the low road of journalism and emulate the new york post rather than the new york times.  It's unfortunate because they do have a responsibility to be fair in their reporting.  Maybe they'll do better next time but I wouldn't count on it. 

...and what about the opposition of the others besides those 4 people? Is that B.S. too?

I guess once again, that remains to be seen.
