[QUOTE="RobGMN, post: 8910059, member: 683408"] False. I brought up the right demanding that all people adhere to THEIR beliefs on homosexuality as collective narcissism. I could have brought up the right demanding that all people adhere to THEIR beliefs on abortion as collective narcissism. I could have brought up the right demanding that the Ten Commandments remain at public courthouses across the country, until SCOTUS said "no way". Or the right demanding that all people adhere to ANY of their beliefs, as collective narcissism. Or do you wish to deny that the right tries to impose their belief structure on the country as a whole? Consider things like: Mandated school prayer; abortion rights; blue laws; ***** rights; the aforementioned Ten Commandments issue; puritanical "anti-***********" regulations. Do you think there is an Establishment Clause in the First Amendment simply because the founders were bored? Do you think it's been part of so many lawsuits because the Christian right WASN'T trying to impose their beliefs on others? [I]collective narcissism - A strong, often unrealistic, belief in the group's uniqueness and greatness[/I] The Christian right feels they are so great and unique, that their beliefs must be the beliefs of ALL Americans. No thank you. And I suppose we'll just be expected to let it go with what you [I]"know beyond a shadow of a doubt"[/I] (a verbatim quote, BTW). Or are you able to provide any solid evidence on that?
