Who gives a damn? It has no affect on us, they've been doing it for thousands of years, stop telling people how to run their lives.

Missionaries did a whole lotta good, just look at Africa.

I'm sure democracy is gonna be a raving success in the middle east too!

Who gives a damn??? You wouldn't want to see the sacrificing of 7 year old girls (or anyone else) to the God of Harvest stopped everywhere in the world ?

Didn't they interfer with how that little girl was running her life? You care that we would tell people how to run their lives by wanting them to stop sacrificing little girls but you don't care that they interfered with the girls life by cutting her liver out?

Sorry , I'm having trouble following the logic of your "who gives a damn" 's.

I think I'll stick with the teachings of The Carpenter on this one.
