The essence of a Christian fundamentalist is that the whole Bible (some include the Apocrypha, mainly Roman Catholics, but most do not) is the ABSOLUTE incontrevertible Word of God.

terrorism and capital murder. Me thinks it's appropriate, what do you think?

When have I ever quoted the Bible in this forum? When have I ever taken a 'CHRISTIAN fundamentalist' position? Do you even know what the term means? And why would it be odd for a christian to quote the Old Testament? I begin to wonder how well informed you are, and how good your memory is. Oh, by the way, I think it is quite clear in the Bible that the state is given the 'sword' in order to dispense justice. This is justice, not vengeance; and Christ was not talking about the state.

I see that as usual you have included the country that has graciously ALLOWED you to live here in the list.
I mean the United States of America is, according to your list an undemocratic place to live.
so, it begs the question, 'why do YOU live here?'
You can always go back to where ever you came from.
that is what a free country is all about, the freedom of choice.
since the US is such a terrible place, leave.

a proud Canadian and resident of the contiguous region of North America.
In America ONLY Americans can be critical to the death penalty? Is that what you are saying? And in America only Americans can be critical to the Bush administration?
Regarding me being American or not, that is nothing that you have a clue about! The fact that I was still in the process when you started to insult me thru private email and I decided to not keep in touch with you anymore, doesn't mean things haven't changed in that matter. I may as well have that Blue Passport with the Eagles on the front! Do you think John Lennon was wrong in moving to the USA, being a British citizen and have very critical opinions about USA?
Oh, and before I forget it. You seem to have picked up your friend's habit of criticizing my English. WHERE does it say that the English has to be perfect? YOU make a lot of mistakes BTW. So does your friend who doesn't even know where the Caps key is on the keyboard. And I could mention a lot of people here that write English much worse than I do, but I prefer not to. It's not my kind. But those who attack with the chin in the air must be able to count with a hit once in a while!
No, I have had it with you. There is no need for you to continue to reply to my posts, so I suggest you hold your peace from now on, when it comes to me. NOTA BENE: It is a suggestion!
1.Nota Bene altough grammatically correct, is almost never used in the writtem word, but then again, a comment has been made about the quantum of YOUREnglish.
2. I have no idea of whom you speak when it comes to some 'friend' of mine who cannot write good english.
3. as for your status in the US I care not a whit, except to say that you should be on your knees, thanking the country that accepted you, not criticizing it.
afterall as a NEW American,how much do you suppose you think you know?.
4. btw the private email could have continued, except for the fact that the other whiner, decided he would try and report me for Spam, a fact you already aware of, given that you were cc'd on the matter.
5. as for responding, to posts, try this, Post something stupid, amd you will hear.

As for #2 I don't have to exemplify with your friend's English. It's enough looking at yours. You seem to have the same difficulty when it comes to the Caps key...
#3: Does a person residing in the USA, citizen or not, have the right to condemn certain parts of the country where he/she is living?
#5: Are you talking processors? Personally I prefer Intel...
