Religion belongs in churches and the home... Not in public places.

Taliban adherents like religion to be everywhere. Do you think that is right?

If you severe God it goes everywhere. Christianity is most needed in all public places especially schools and government. There are many of us who take it there everyday. You can never defeat God. We will always be everywhere and you are powerless against us.

God is a concept for those who think they have discovered an imaginary friend that is greater than and has taken the place of Santa Claus and the easter bunny. The mind plays strange tricks at times and it it's hard to fight those perceptions.

We don't need those imaginary thoughts of omnipotent beings taking up time in our schools or their concepts influencing public policy.

Society would be much better served if it became more spiritual and in touch with the natural world, learning to respect and honor it rather then trying to control and dominate it.

Spirituality doesn't need religion but religion needs spirituality.

You realize it pretty much is already kept out of public schools, right? Were there some killings I missed?

You may think it is but it's still there. Until you kill off all the Christians there will be prayer in school and witnessing going on in public places. It cannot be stopped. You pretend that because some judge has ignored the constitution and said you could not do so in school that is has ended. Most public schools even have Christian clubs. They all have see you at the pole prayer day's. And they all have people praying in them every day.

Yep. True.

Now tell us why so many Christians think they're being persecuted. You've got the First Amendment hard at work every time someone yells "Jesus saves!" in America's public squares and I'm still trying to find out where all this persecution is.

Maybe you can also let us know who it is that you think even WANTS to kill off the Christians. Really? You're thinking in terms of defending to the death? When you live in a country where Bibles are available in public libraries?

I cannot answer for "so many Christians". Sorry!

I did not say I thought anyone wanted to kill off the Christians. I just told you what you would have to do to achieve what you put forth.

Why are you not a pleasant person to talk to? Did somebody pee in your Corn Flakes?

I must have gone to a unique school.

I'm a Cheerios lover and use whole milk. (Excellent for having great cholesterol numbers.) So between that and not worrying that a few posters on CD seem to get upset when they're challenged I figure it's all good.
