Another hair cutting episode at a public school

This child is their child, they are responsible for her, and we all have the right to choose how we raise our children.

Except if we want to raise them like the FLDS raise their children (or others who violate the rights of the children). And please don't think that I am comparing these people to the FLDS. Just pointing out that we have limitations in what we can dictate to our children.

I know you say you are not comparing this pastor, Bro McNeily, to the
FLDS....but you may want to contact him, if you think he has become a dictator, rather than a dad with convictions.

Might I add, convictions that are not considered illegal (referring to Bro McNeily), such as spiritual marriage of underage children that we have heard of with the FLDS (referring to the FLDS).

As Micheal Phelps as so eloquently added on another thread dealing with convictions, convictions are things that you are willing to die for (According to the US Supreme Court).

The prophet Isaiah talked about people in ch 29 that made issue of a word. I wasn't calling this man a dictator -- look I included the pronoun "we".
