I am a Proud Liberal Democrat Christian. All this is just plain trash.. I am certainly tolerant of christians and Jews. What a stupid subject for a post.
Of course I want to keep the KKK type of christianity away from our children, and out of our schools.
The KKK is not a religion, it is a white supremacist group, what they do has nothing to do with christianity although they certainly hide behind it, I agree that their message has no business in schools, but I digress, secondly, maybe you as a proud liberal Democrat Christian are tolerant of religion in public, but there are some from your side of the fence seen on television and in court cases trying to do the opposite of your claim, I don't see the right doing this, hence the thread starters inquiry.
What has the Ten commandments have to do with Christianity? Take em out of our halls. Why do we need them? They are fine to read in the old testament.
The ten comandments are the key set of behavioral rules and as a christian you and I believe they are the word of god, regardless of such they are still great social rules and most certainly can't hurt if out in a courthouse.
some of yu right wing almost Americans, you all talk like you have feathers in your heads instead of Hair.
"almost americans"? Why even make an assumption that someone with a differing opinion is less than american because you don't like what they say, now I will say this, I am sick of people saying that conservatives want to take away civil liberties and rights, that is not the case, the ones who advocate censorship are right wing and are kooks, but the left takes shots at other liberties such as the right to run a private business as seen fit by it's rightful owner, and also liberals take shots at people's right to happiness by constantly attacking their choices such as what type of vehicle to own, their choice in the type of house they live in, and even their right to minimal taxation(thus punishing hard work), don't get me started on the anti-military rhetoric, to disagree with the current war is fine, that is your right, but to say that our soldiers are murderers and baby killers, to treat them with disrespect when they return, to use their fellow soldiers deaths as a political tool, and even to say they aren't needed and deserve to lose wars(the extreme left does feel this way, just listen to some of them) and the like isn't exactly patriotic now, is it?
Christianity belongs in our homes and churches, not in our schools.
Okay, so if someone said blacks don't belong in white schools then that would be racism and would be wrong, to say that gays shouldn't be given equal rights would also be intolerant, to exclude qualified women from male dominated fields would be bad as well, these are all examples of intolerance, and so is banning religious expression from schools, it is discrimination, it is intolerance, and it is WRONG.
