Didn't say they were a political organization, just pointing out that
the Dutch are about as likely to support this "Pedophile party" about
as much as Americans support NAMBLA.

That's nice. I guess you just hate "Liberal extremists" I guess I don't
really know what they are? Is this an organized party? Are they more
dangerous than "Extremist Conservatives, or "Islamic extremists" or any
"religious extremists" ?

Sorry but I have a very good concept of the Bible ( New Testament, I've
written off the Old Testament as a bunch of fictional baloney) I agree
with your assessment of Jesus' teachings, but Right wing Christians
do not follow Jesus' teaching of tolerance and forgiveness, they use
the Bible (mostly Old Testament ) to support a conservative agenda of
hate and intolerance. I'm certainly not accusing Methodists, or most
churches of this.

I suspect that this "extremist "anything goes" crowd who are afraid of
any
Constraints upon human immorality." is much larger in your mind than in
reality, but religions need enemies to justify there existence, so why
not create the "extremist Liberal" threat.
