re: #261 Sharmuta

They can be as religious as they want to be, but they need to understand that whole separation of Church and State thing.

That’s the real issue right there. No one cares what they believe or want to practice. But when they want to teach theology in the biology classes, smuggle ID into science curricula standards, hang the ten commandments on the walls of public buildings, and tell people who we can and can’t sleep with….even other Christians get testy.

They keep yapping that America is a Christian nation, seemingly forgetting that the US is really about religious freedom and personal liberties. I think it pisses a lot of people off who even share their values— but value religious freedom and the separation of church and state more.
