on the topic of political correctness, the war on Christmas and Christianity...
we have freedom of religion in this country, which also by the way includes the RIGHT not to be oppressed with others religion also... our founding fathers left europe for some of these very reasons....
the problem is christians have long had a majority and wrongfully (according to the constitution) have pushed their beliefs upon society through public prayer, prayer in schools, displaying of nativity scenes, displaying of the ten commandments, etc...
now before you attack me listen up. i am a christian, but i understand the law and how it protects people from religious persecution and oppression.
since islam is the current religion to hate in America let me pose this question:
If you as a christian were forced to pray a muslim prayer everyday because muslims were the majority in America would that be acceptable to you. if your answer is no, then QUIT bitching and STOP acting like there is a war on christmas or religion. there isn't, it's just the people who have had Christianity pushed onto them fighting back. after all the constitution does say this "ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL"...
if you don't like that, change the constitution, leave the country or STFU....
Christians today are free to pray by themselves in public, private, school, etc... Praying should be more of a private matter and not boasting anyway according to scripture. Your churches can put nativity scenes, but govt bldgs should not and cannot endorse any specific religion...
the constitution and Christianity don't mix... oh wait, yes they do, and so does Judaism/constitution and Islam/constitution and Budism/constitution, etc..., etc..., etc...

Now Merry Christmas to all and have a Happy Holiday Season !!!!
