[ You don't think we have a right not to have religion forced on us? How odd. ]

" Same question.. Forced HOW?.. What "right" is being denied.?."

When people try to force religion into science classrooms. When people try to force others to obey their morality when the action in no way infringes on anybody else's rights to life, liberty, or property. That's one reason we still have blue laws.

For the most part, the Constitution has been a check on these impulses. I have no doubts though that if a Pat Robertson or a Jerry Falwell had real political power, they would not hesitate to establish a theocracy here.
