Religion and the free practice thereof, are guaranteed civil rights defined by our founders in our founding documents, so why is there even a question being asked, should it be banned in public places? How could we as a free nation ban the one thing that has kept us strong since our inception?
The founders left Europe for a reason, the reason being they desired to live in a land where they could worship God according to the dictates of their own consciousness, and not according to the dictates of a government run religious organization, the Church of England. These brave souls came to this land to escape the tyranny and persecution for their Christian beliefs.
These people risked everything the had in this world to gain their freedom from England, so that they could worship God freely, without government intrusion into their private lives.
Our Constitution and Bill of Rights gives Americans the right to freely practice their religion as they see fit to, or not to if they should choose so. It states that government shall make NO law that prohibits the free practice of religion. So how is it possible then that some would seek to violate that right by banning religious expression in public places?
Is it that some people who choose not to believe in a Benevolent Creator God, would then force their humanist religion on the rest of us, again violating the civil rights of masses of people?
In the United States of America, Religion is indeed the cornerstone of a free democracy; remove that cornerstone, and the building will surely collapse, and that is the very danger we are being exposed too my friends.
Without the freedom to worship as we each see fit, to speak freely even on the subject of spiritual things, and to read or quote the Scripture freely, we as a nation will crumble away to nothing.
There are those that seek to silence those who speak according to the dictates of their faith, merely because in doing so they cause an individual to feel a conviction in their souls, and men cringe and shake within when they are confronted with the Laws of God that speak to his absolutes.
So men vainly attempt to tear down the public vestiges of the Christian faith, for it makes them angry when they are exposed to the truth, so they war against it.
No other faith is the recipient of such vile and hateful actions as is the Christian faith. For In the pages of the Bible we see God's absolute moral standards that we can never accomplish in our puny flesh.
Islam, Occultism of every kind, and Humanism are all widely accepted in our free culture, they are taught in the schools, while Christianity has been thrown out the window, and branded as a has been religion.
The message of the love of God for lost humanity is at best offensive to most men, who think of themselves to be all-sufficient, and able to stand on their own power. The message of hope that brings real change from within is discarded as mythological by egg-headed, superficial indoctrinators throughout the land.
Why the war against Christianity? Why the push to ban it from public life, while all other religion gets a green light?
I say that if we are to live together in a free nation and remain so, we must stop assaulting the Christian religion as if it were some terrible plague that has been unleashed on society, that must be quarantined.
For our future as a nation depends upon maintaining the rights of the all Americans to freely practice their religion as they see fit, without government intrusion, or regulation.
