I hope we move forward, as a tolerant community, with the failure of a deplorable attack by defeated Auditor/Rep. Gary Alexander upon those associated with J.Z. Knight. Knight herself is a public figure who <a href=http://swargaranischool.com/miscellaneaus.html>bears jersey houston texans jerseys</a> can defend herself, but Republicans now wish to deny civic <a href=http://softvent.com/prd_FAM.html>nfl panthers jerseys cheap Bengals jerseys usa</a> participation even to those finding value in Knight s Yelm school.
Ironically, given Alexander s opposition to the most basic civil rights laws, Republicans accused those associating with Knight of condoning bigotry. I m the <a href=http://www.gayanasamaja.org/neo.htm>Youth Football Jerseys wholesale nfl jerseys</a> lineal descendant of a leader with eight wives in a major American religion, so I m probably ill-equipped to pass public judgment on beliefs of others (even if I wanted to).
I <a href=http://bevafinishes.com/beva-softes.asp>wholesale nfl jerseys Cheap Jerseys From China</a> m sure aspects of my Methodism baffle those of other faiths, even fellow Christian denominations. All major religious texts can be read as having <a href=http://bangalorewebhosting.com/SEO-services/nfl-jersey-authentic.html>cheap basketball Custom NFL <a href=http://glenspark.com/software.html>bills new jerseys atlanta falcons jersey</a> Football Jerseys</a> bizarre passages to those lacking faith in them. Must we attribute every eccentricity of faith, or mistakes by those to whom they are faithful, to campaign donors?
I don t know Knight. But many of those who subscribe to her beliefs run businesses and are engaged, productive citizens who add value to Thurston County. I encourage, and welcome, their participation in our democracy, whatever my personal feelings about their beliefs.
