Being in the majority doesn't give us the right to co-opt government to advance our own agenda.

We should play in the free market of ideas, without subsidy or penalty.

I believe this because I believe our values are superior.

That's cute. Someone who believes that the free market of ideas actually is effective at selecting the best ideas.

The (Judeo-)Christian culture is not our own agenda, it is the one that has always existed and continues to exist in this country. It isn't arbitrary.

Don't you see? There is a penalty now. Who decided that once you become a "government employee" (taxpayer employee) that you should also become agnostic? Who decided that the buildings that our dollars build should be totally void of anything Christian - even though many federal buildings of the past aren't? We're losing more and more of our freedom.
