You totally do not understand the bases of a religiously free country. In a religiously free country governments can not indorse or promote any single religion. Putting religious icons in government buildings is indorseing that one religion over another. Why do you feel so insecure about your religion if it doesn't appear on a government building. Why can't you let the government be nuetral about religion? Why does that bother you and the religious right so much? The only reason I can think of is that you wish to indoctrinate people into that particular religion. To make it the official religion of the country, and that I am against.

Because they are not just making government neutral - they are making government anti-God and taking away the religious freedoms we established the country to get.

Sure - there is no problem with just making it neutral - but they are not doing that because it means there can be no mention of God in public buildings, no prayers at sports events, no ability for a child to give a friend a Bible at school, they are then progressing further to telling us where we can speak the "G" word, what decorations we can have on holidays, what kind of pageants at school.

Many of you are not looking at the goals of the ACLU. It is not merely making government neutral - it is destroying our religious freedom and the religious freedom of all religions - especially anything with God in it.

Now it is remove something from the building because it offends. No concern that it offends the Christians when someone decides that they no longer have the freedom to speak of God anyplace - same as all other religions have.

Next it is "do that on private property - not public property because you cannot mention anything about God on public property". And "why do you feel the need to speak of God publicly anyway - it should be done in your homes".

So here we are now taking our religious freedom and curtailing it because the government has access over that property. This is the very same thing they are doing with the environmental issues. Assume control over an area due to some environmental issue and then keep that control and deny the public the right to free use of the area. Remember Anwar, the national forests, business pursuits in California, endangered species.

The very same plan is at work on freedom of religion in America.

People better wake up. They know full well there has been NO promotion of a specific religion in America as all religions operate freely. The atheists want no religion, the Muslims want their religion instilled as the only religion and to do it, they must get God out of there. Then they will instill their version of religion and enforce the public supporting it.

Don't blindly believe it is just making government neutral - it is giving government the right to tell us where and when we can mention God, how we handle Christmas, Easter, what we can do at sports events, who and when we can give Bibles to a friend, and what is taught in our schools.

I thought most of these supporters were great believers in no government control - yet they are the ones fighting to take God out. How appropriate that in removing God - they also remove their freedom of religion and freedom in America.

Remember - "Don't Mess with God".
