Now a Hindu Group Wants a Monument at the Oklahoma Capitol

RE: Now a Hindu Group Wants a Monument at the Oklahoma Capitol
I've heard stories about christians wanting to put a nativity scene on public property, and for the sake of fairness, the town had to put up other religious stuff as well. The end result was gaudy, and a good example of why keeping religion out of the state and such actually helps christians as much as anyone.

Some people just don't get it, though, and still want this to be a christian only nation. Really, a lot of people want this to be a theocracy, like my grandmother, despite that we have evidence that it doesn't work. You have the middle east, where women are oppressed because a religious book says they're the root of all evil, and wars between christians in Europe, due to the differences between catholics and protestants.

Abrahamic religions, or at least the offshoots of judaism, are very divisive.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.
