WTF mate! I think Iran is more your style.

You act like as if it that easy just to move to another country. Actually according to the Constitution and now the US Supreme Court decision I have the freedom and right to pray and promote Christianity in public

Christmas is a national holiday, and so is Good Friday in my state, and Sunday shopping is banned in my county. I have God on my money and in pledge publicly...

I am actually quite happy and more is on the way because we demand more freedom and rights as stated in your so-called Constitution.

But seriously Jag-je, Supreme Court Justices aren't elected. Much like you weren't elected the true judge of real Christians.

Well, there are important theological differences that just haven't been ironed out yet.

Another thousand years or so ought to do it.

Iran is an Islamic country.... I am NOT Muslim. I do not believe in apostasy penalty nor killing non-believers or homosexuals, or taxing non-Christians.

No, Jesus saved the prostitute Mary Magdalena from being stoned by the Jewish.

Yes you can. But you can not force others who are trying to take care of business to sit and listen to your preaching. BTW this ruling was limited to this one case, it wasn't a nationwide decision.

You aren't a real Christian then.

Leviticus
20:9: If anyone curses his father or mother, he must be put to death.
20:10 If a man commits adultery with another man’s wife—with the wife of his neighbor—both the adulterer and the adulteress must be put to death.
20:13 If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to death.

25:44-45 Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves. You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property.

Deuteronomy
22:20-1 If, however, the charge is true and no proof of the girl’s virginity can be found, she shall be brought to the door of her father’s house and there the men of her town shall stone her to death. She has done a disgraceful thing in Israel by being promiscuous while still in her father’s house.

Exodus
35:2 For six days, work is to be done, but the seventh day shall be your holy day, a Sabbath of rest to the LORD. Whoever does any work on it must be put to death.

Huh? What did today's SC decision have to do with private citizens praying and promoting religion in public?
