It's about the free exercise of Religion. If you wish to display a Hebrew or Northern European Yeshua, then have fun and express your religion peacefully. Have fun debating it peacefully. This is what makes our country great. The bottom line remains that the 1st Amendment protects the free exercise of religion. And I believe that it should protect the free exercise thereof on or off Public property.

I didn't post that pic for fun. I posted it to make a point. That picture outraged Christians here on FR. I honestly don't know why a Hebrew Jesus should offend Christians, but it does. It's the same situation with these lawsuits. One group of Christians is offended by another group of Christians...and secularists are blamed by both groups.

I agree with you...As long as it's free expression and not indoctrination. I see nothing wrong with a kid praying, pictures of Jesus, the Ten Commandments or nativity scenes. I think those who are easily offended by any of this need to lighten up and get a life.
