"Where is the intimidation? Just when have any been made to turn away from their beliefs and believe in Christianity? Try something like this in any of the Muslim countries and see how far you get. Why complain about America and religious comfort levels when most every other country does dictate what you believe."

First of all justification by comparison is not relievant in America. It is not right to say that it is better here because it is worst somewhere else. What right do you have to decide whether someone is intimidated or not.

Then put it in objective terms. On what logical basis do you claim that you're intimidated? Are you likewise intimidated by the references to the Creator in the Declaration of Independence?

Sorry, I made an assumption in my previous post. I realize now that you yourself weren't claiming to be intimidated. My question remains, however, regarding how feelings of intimidation can be properly justified.
