all examples of religious institutions telling other people what to do.

CALL the presidential hopefuls (all of them), and ask what their stance is. It doesn’t matter what they answer — they need to know it’s an isue.

Hmmmm…Isn’t AA an “institution”?

It doesn’t matter what they answer…you need to tell them what to do…

Another interesting contradiction…perhaps JONBOY in his wisdom will explain…
