Intolerant - maybe, short sited - hardly, narrow - most defiantly.
I don’t like and don’t believe it.
To compare me getting ill over a hindu prayer in the senate to the taliban - is laughable.
We are NOT a hindu nation. A hindu priest should not be opening the senate with a hindu prayer.
And no I do not have to respect hinduism, the hindu individual I will of course but not the religion.
‘nuf said.
Neither are we a Christian nation. Read the Constitution and see if you can find anything saying what kind of prayers are acceptable in the Senate.
The ACLU doesn't go after this prayer because it is not by the Senate, it is for the Senate. It is a private citizen expressing his or her private religious beliefs with no obligation for anyone else to share them.
Welcome to America.
We’re not a Christian nation, either. We’re a republic based on religious freedom, FOR ALL RELIGIONS. If anything, dump the idea of an ‘opening prayer’, it’s the Senate, not a church.
