    Minor quibble:

    Freedom is about having a choice and nothing to do with it being a positive or negative.

    I never said that my way of handling it wouldn't cause an issue with work. In fact, I think I said it would. You calling me names is actually against TOS here. If I were a jerk, I would totally report you for it.

    But I am actually a pretty tolerant guy and respect your right to have an opinion, even if it is an uninformed one. Quite frankly, the jerk in the scenario is still the lady who is INTERRUPTING him at his job (something that seems to be lost among some here) and forcing her religious thoughts and beliefs on SICK and the other customers in a very physical way.

    Put SICK aside for a moment, what if the other customers were offended by her ations? What if they threatened to pull their money out of this bank because, not only do they allow rude, pushy old ladies to cut in front of them without a care for their own personal business, but are offended that a bank would support this type of behavior?

    As for George Carlin, clearly you are not a fan. The guy wasn't an athiest. Athiesm is a set of beliefs. The man didn't believe in it. In fact, he was fairly open about not giving a **** about any of the religious stuff, on either side. He didn't believe in there being a God or not being a God. He simply didn't care. That is more of what I was alluding too.

    I realize that religion is a very touchy subject with folks and clearly seems to be with you, but I refuse to be talked down to or belittled because I don't care to believe whatever it is you believe. And if someone else can't respect that...I would venture to say that they are quite the jerk.

    :up:

    I didn't call you a jerk.

    I am a fan of George Carlin. He is a funny man.

    Understandable. I like to use the word positive. It is my freedom of choice :)

    If you were happy, what she said wouldn't have bothered you.
