    It would be interesting to see what the "extremist" information was. I am all for checks and balances, but am also all for allowing people to follow God in their own way. Russia (in the past), and China have both tried to outlaw religion only to find that it thrives under persecution. Western Churches are, by and large, mostly ineffectual in proselytising as many of their members only pay lip service to their "faith" anyway.
    I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...

    Faith in God is easy. I don't see the point of all these religions anyway. They all miss the point by a country mile.
    True freedom is the greatest gift a man can possess, yet is the one thing most easily and innocently given away, to crafty curses and binds cleverly disguised as blessings and gifts, in the pursuit of supposed achievement, status and power.

    Of course they do, but banning religions has historically been an abject failure and has in fact strengthened them in secret....
    The fact that there's a highway to hell and a stairway to heaven says a lot about the anticipated traffic flow.

    For sure. Satanists for example still practice, just in a mountain cave or something.
