No praying in school, no talking about Christ, no Ten Commandments on public display, "waah waah, take it down, we dont like it."
Meanwhile you are trying to tell my little sister that she came from a monkey.
Freedom of religion? Freedom of speech? So long as that speech does not involve God or the Bible...
Who is intolerant?
Recently, in Pennsylvania, a girl was giving her VALEDICTORIAN speech, and started praising Christ, and her entire senior class started to cheer, but her microphone was cutoff, and she was removed from stage.
Freedom of speech? Freedom of religion? As long as you don't talk about it openly, you are free to hide your faith from others, in the fear that you might "offend" someone.
And before you go there, it does not take someone who is religious to understand morality. Calling something that is wrong wrong is not religious bigotry, but open honesty. I am intolerant; of those who would selfishly destroy our society.

No name: I can reasonably assume that you are referring to wiccan. First off, I am not responsible for the actions of the Catholic church throughout history, second of all, for those who actually are witches of any sort, (wiccans aren't singled out, ya know,) you have free will to choose this life, but that doesn't mean God is gonna change his mind. I can say I want to sit around and smoke pot and not hurt noone else, but if I get caught I am still going to jail.

You have churches where you can pray. Your little sister can believe whatever the hell she wants but let her have all the facts and make up her own mind. How about keeping your religious beliefs private and worshiping that way? Not everyone believes the same way as you do.
Who is intolerant? Oh, you mean like those good "christians" yelling and screaming at women going into abortion clinics calling them murderers? How about trying to force your beliefs into laws? You don't call that intolerant?

If there were true freedom of religion, Muslims like myself wouldn't get a bad name for the acts of those in the Middle East. We are not all aspiring terrorists. I preach only the way of peace and I do look down on the acts of the Shi'a.

Don't use my tax money and don't do it at events where non-Christians are expected to attend and I don't have a problem.
And while you're at it, don't tell my son that he came from Adam and Eve who produced Cain and Able who had kids even though Eve was the only woman around. Messing with your mother is just a bit too perverted for my taste.

My crowd had to hide their faith for hundreds of years from the church. To the point where it had become a way of life. Who are you calling selfish?

Do you have to rent that soapbox, or do you own?
