'Constitutional Rights' a term Americans use to imply a protection from state interference,
ahhh...association and speech and such.
This idea, this term... is so branded into the American national and political psyche that it is used...tossed about almost as if by reflex...without ever really giving a thought to it's actual meaning; one's 'Constitutional Right?'
I see this happen in so many instances where one line is crossed...offense taken...and then..it's my 'Constitutional Right' blah..blah..
And in reality, No... there is no 'Constitutional Right' to this...or from that.
And then again, as if 'Constitutional Rights' can't quite fulfill it's promise... there are 'Civil Rights'...the term implied to mean protecting one from eachother.
But ultimately, and universally, we all acknowledge 'Human Rights'.
Anyways...time is a waistin' and have got to get on with the day....Christmas day you know.
Merry Christmas.

Subject: [epilepsy] Re: reply
Whats so sad is when religion or any particular type of belief comes up in the group. We all go off on it rather than sticking to epilepsy. This all started because one person having to start it. We are all here to give each other support concerning epilepsy for the most part. That's why we try staying off politics and religion. Sure its your constitutional right. Would you rather keep on going on this subject or stay on what the subject is titled "epilepsy"? Take care, keep a smile on your face!

Whatever gets you through the night is alright for you.Don't try to push your belief on me. And as far as the gods thing, christianity isn't the only religion, the bible not the only holy book out there, and some people do believe in more than one god. No religious attack, just everyone isn't a born again bible thumper. This is an epilepsy site, not religion.

You though should read the first of the TEN COMANDMENTS if you think there is more than one God as you said No god can cure epilepsy. God has blessed me more than I could imagine as my condition could be worse. I said I would not reply to attacks, but this one needed to be.  Â
