I strongly disagree, and people who are so rightous do nothing but drive me further away from JESUS.
Why do the fringe Christians and Muslims have to be so hateful toward other religions?

I don't know how I feel about this..
Say we had an all Muslim state Senate. Should anyone be surprised if they don't want to hear references to anyone but "Allah"
That's what happens when you are in the majority for so long you forget what could happen tomorrow.
If it were me, I would gather the Christian members (and other faiths should do the same) for a sermon or prayer beforehand. Besides, from what I have seen these prayers are doing our government no good at all. As the most of the men in government are acomplished liars and cheats.
Much like perfuming a pig as it is.

So you're saying that Jews today believe that Jesus is the Messiah?
That is certainly news to me.

I think the whole thing is kind of ridiculous when you consider the calibre of most politicians.

"Jesus is not part of the Trinity?
When you call upon any one of the three names do you not call upon the same single being?"

This is why you pray in the name of JESUS.

To: Hoppean
Everything you say is correct in its own right, except it does not apply. It is ridiculous to assume that a minority does not notice that it is a minority. As for growing skin --- what do YOU know about that?
And finally, there is a difference between you freely practicing your faith and trowing bigotted phrases, such as "this is a Christian nation" (which means everyone else is not). Majority of people here are white, but it is a racist statement to say "this is a white nation; grow some skin and get used to it."
Your heart is not bad, but you have kept a bad company and have been contaminated.
To: yonif
You are begging the question and saying that our history is not real.
Shame!

I don't believe that Jews pray to "the Messiah." The pray to God.
A prayer to God, without reference to Jesus Christ, would be appropriate no matter your religion--even Hindu.
That should be the practice, no matter your personal belief. Seek that which unites, not that which divides.

I'll clarify first by saying that I'm a Christian. How is saying a prayer in a public proceeding which would violate teh 1st Commandment (and therefore be idolatry) for Jews a good idea when there are less divisive options available?

"
The ACLU contends that praying at the request of a government entity is a violation of the First Amendment's prohibition against the establishment of religion."I can't wait 'till God declares the ACLU irrelevant.

I think you just said everything opposite to what I did in my post.
To: honway
As a Jew, I apologize for these nitwits.

..this is entirely the clergyman's fault and he owes an apology....You're losing it, Illbay.
Your post (and much of your recent threads) tests positive to the need-to-offend syndrome, which starts with pointlessly upsetting fellow Freepers and rapidly progresses to arguments becoming more than 90% of your FR discourse. No prizes for guessing where it ends up. I recommend a six-week break from Freeping, and plenty of sunshine, exercise and fresh air.
That worked, for me. :)

Could we all agree to a prayer to chicken soup?
