re: #28 wrenchwench

That’s like saying the Constitution should protect me from others who want to pray for me.

**eyeroll**

Sorry, nonsense. The two have nothing in common, and if you think more carefully about this, you will see the difference. It’s more akin to saying that I want protection from people who will pray for me only if they can forcibly position me to join their religion. It is the same intellectual process as saying it is okay for a Neobaptist to push my head underwater (or pour water over my head), since I don’t have to acknowledge Jesus Christ afterwards. Prayer is non-invasive. My argument is that the action of conversion is an unwanted act, performed on me or my family posthumously. What if someone whet around swapping all non-Christian headstones at cemeteries for crosses. Would that be okay? No emotional stress associated with that? Not in any way actionable?
