I admit it bugs me that people mistakenly think that the
constitution says freedom FROM religion. It does not! That is a
term developed by an outspoken minority organization of atheists rather than
what the founding fathers of the United States meant. What it actually
says in the First Amendment is "Congress shall make no law respecting
an establishment OF religion, OR prohibiting the free exercise thereOF…"
So, why is it that Christians (which is in the 75% majority
of American
religious affiliations per 2014 Gallup Poll) are being told they
cannot pray or share their beliefs? Is that not prohibiting religion? Yet it
is okay for other religions to pray, practice, and try to convert others?
Why are Christians prohibited but others are not? Are we now censoring the Bible? What does this mean for group worship? Are Christian churches now in danger too?
When did religious tolerance get
redefined as anti-Christian? The USA is a
democracy, so why does the Christian majority allow itself to be bullied by other
religious or non-religious minorities?
Maybe it has
something to do with government officials not understanding the vocabulary
themselves and just accepting the louder minority-talk as correct? Watch
the video below and let me know what you think in comments to this post. If you want to hear part of the JFK speech that was distorted in Obama speech, go to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_SsVpkh5yvE (understand that Catholic and Protestant are both Christian, even though the USA majority population were Protestant at the time.)
