That's still a first amendment right.

The reason businesses can't lie is because their lies cost customers money (ie denies right to property). Same for defamation or slander. But in American law at least, business != religion since "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion" but can make laws about business.

 

lol, that made me :chuckles:


but you could only sue him if he forced you to believe in his beliefs or tried to pass them off as fact and not just his beliefs.

 

He did.

See? Not a shred of doubt anywhere.... :chuckles:

 

that happens all the time on this forum.. :happysad:




:chuckles:

 

Seriously, go to the Civic forum and search for turbo vs. N/A h:

 

^ lol :lmao:



Anyway, it will be interesting to see if this case goes anywhere...and if it does what its outcome will be.

 

ive argued over religion a bunch of times, but never did i have the intention of taking it to a court to have them locked up, nor did i expect the same to happen to me. h:

 

that is certainly true!

 

And yet you BELIEVE you are suing me.

See, works both ways.

It is my belief that religion is just as bad as a company that lies. It's based on lies and takes donations that people feel they are giving because of truth. But I believe they are being lied to.

Many people believe in Scientology as a religion. However, the founder of that "relgion" even said himself that anyone can start a religion on anything and make it profitable. He did.

 

humanaity is steeped in tradition and the majority of those rules have a strong basis in decent moral code. a coworker and i were just talking about the differences between judaism, islam and christianity, all in all theyre really not SUSBTANTIally differen and a great majority of people believe in it. some could say theyre just stories, etc, but what you cant say is that the "rules" have no basis in reality. dont steal, dont fuck your friends over or fuck your friends life and youll have a happy life. right?!
