You have freedom of religion, I should have freedom from it. But, increasingly the righteous religious right is forcing religious beliefs into the laws of this land!

Actually, that's not true. The truth is that for the last two decades religious beliefs are increasingly being legislated out of the laws of this land. Like no more prayers allowed in our schools, no 10 commandments displayed in the courthouses, etc. What religous law of the land are you being forced to follow?

Edited for paragraphs? Good god man...you should have kept editing. It needs a lot more than paragraph breaks. For starters, stop capitalizing every word. I mean, wtf??

Shhh...you'll disturb his reverie! Obviously, he was "speaking in tongues," and us unbelievers aren't qualified to comprehend the depth of meaning in his post.

Excuse me--typing the previous sentence has made me feel unaccountably sick to my stomach.

First of all, prayer should not be in public schools, nor should the ten commandments... Separation of Church and State, that protects you and I.

The religious right has made a concerted effort in recent years to push for Bible based laws or to block the repeal of same.

They invoke 'their' God in all things political.

How would you feel if the Muslims had that much political clout. Or, say, the Satanists.

That is why the founding fathers wanted to keep the government out of religion.

Just like the OP should have respected the non-believers who care enough to point out the failings in various religious beliefs instead of posting his angry message?
