Yes, to me its GOOFY to ban a wrist watch and that makes no sense to me...but to say that my brother in Christ, who may not even call ME his brother, may loathe me because I like modern things and Movados, is like those who committed these crimes against humanity is shameful AT BEST....

Thank you, Monkeyman. I know that I missed the action going on that precipitated this thread, so I'm in a different frame of mind on it.
When someone, IMO, is equating circumstances and issues like NLYP did, I think of the government rule, at that point, and not the genocide. But, that's just me. When I think of all of it, my mind goes to where it started and not where it ended.
