And a lot of those people will be religious. It's typical for those who are deeply religious to ask for your religious affiliation, and shame you if you are not a believer. #uglyamericans

Maybe i was a bit too surprised tat people start tis topic in a non private environment, as long i can remember i never heard people talking about religious questions in public....
@ brewer :
That sounds like a good idea, will do exactly that the next time ! Thanks !
( btw, its a strange concept for me that anything religious is allowed to happen on government property, as fa as i know we have regulations in 15 of 16 federal states that bans the use of religious symbols in federal , state, and community buildings...)
