It's called "having your cake and eating it too." They only want freedom of religion when it comes to their own religion. It's OK for them to push their religion into government, but not OK for anyone else to do the same thing. Like Mr. Agenda wrote, they lose their minds at the idea of atheists, Hindus or any other non-Christians being equal to them in the eyes of government.



Wow, I didn't even know that had happened. Perhaps I'm living under a rock...oh wait I know...I'm living in Texas.

I'm waiting for the day when an event like that can begin with an Atheist statement. Just a good philosophical thought to encourage better behavior.
I have studied the Bible and the theology behind Christianity for many years. I have been to many churches. I have walked the depth and the breadth of the religion and, as a result of this, I have a lot of bullshit to scrape off the bottom of my shoes. ~Ziploc Surprise
