		<description>Dale, I saw what you were trying to do. I was primarily responding to what the other posters were saying, and recognizing that there&#039;s a lot of anger out there toward (self-professed) Christians. I&#039;m trying to point out that not all those who call themselves Christians, (and especially not all those actually striving to adhere to the teachings of Christ,) want to enlist the violence of the State to make people virtuous. Christians know that one cannot use force to make anyone believe anything: belief is a free will acceptance of a truth as perceived by intellect, and force is a negation of the free will. It is a contradiction in terms. Yes, I do believe that deliberate contraception and sex outside of marriage (and yes, the State has no place defining or legislating marriage) are moral evils, but I recognize that they are evils that will not be eradicated by violence.   I will not enlist shaved-head goons to kick down the door of two homosexuals who live down the street, nor will I enlist said goons to make anyone go to Mass.  

As a Catholic, I lament that my fellow churchgoers, have, in great part, bowed down to the idol god of statism. It sickens me that the flag of the Big State, complete with the Roman standard eagle atop it, darkens a spot right outside the sanctuary.  But, like most other statists, they just don&#039;t know what they are doing. These are some of the people Jesus asked forgiveness for as he hung on the cross, dying at the hands of the Roman Empire, because of our sins. They just don&#039;t know. They do not see the damage that statism causes. It is sad. Trust me, I jab into their statist belief system with logic every chance I get. It has led to me getting a tad shunned by some people whom I once counted as friends. I&#039;ve been quite nearly called a heretic by some, an attack I quickly shut down. 

Fellow anarchists, I am a Catholic and an anarchist. I may have differing views on many things concerning morality, but you know that I will never initiate violence against you. Why do you try to make enemies of Christian anarchists? We anarchists all have enough work cut out for us in our own lives, in our own fields, and among our own friends. We must continue to try and convince them, and try to advance the cause of individual liberty. 

The statists are now trying to throw all of us to the lions. Let&#039;s not fight amongst ourselves.

EVERY DAY...well then I think we wouldn&#039;t have time to consider what the differences are &quot;around us&quot;,  but,  more what the SAMENESS is we all share with each other and our &quot;Universe&quot;....I give you a song in your heart....and a smile for your soul......and  The Oneness with the &quot;SOURCE&#039;.</description>
