Also, there are varying levels of lay opinions. I mean look at Bill O'Reilly - he reads the same shiitte I do. Other than he is on tv, he, like me, is not a politician. So, what makes his opinion significantly better than mine?
Finally, and to the point, do you agree with what LC says in her lay opinion. It was the point I was making in the other thread, which is worship whenever, where ever, and however you want, just do not pass a law making me do the same.

No, I liked the fact that she pointed it out as her opinion. Like so many opinions...they stink! hahaha...I like what O'Reilly SEEMINGLY tries to do on his network by giving "balanced" reportage. I don't know he really pulls it off very well, because it's no secret that he is conservatively biased. But that's just it isn't? We're all going to be on different sides of the fence. Until they create a drug that turns us all into robots...
