"I know of some cities that have come after home Bible studies by enforcing some obscure traffic laws regarding parking in residential areas. If they haven't taken your Bible, it's because they haven't figured out a way to do it yet."

So they broke in and stole the Bibles?

Give me a break. There's no police department in the U.S. that's against Bible study. The vast majority of police I know are Christians.

Did I say they broke in and stole people's Bibles? I said that in some cities, police have knocked on the doors of homes where Bible studies are held and have told the homeowners they can't have their meetings any longer because the cars of those who attend take up all the available parking on the street. These people were parked legally. The police had no standing to make the request that the meetings stop happening. It was an attempt at intimidation.

Of course there are many police officers who are solid Christians, or solidly religious in general. There are many conservatives who are also solidly religious, but look at the opposition Christianity gets on threads such as this, in a conservative discussion site. Sorry you're oblivious to the war on religion, particularly the Christian religion, in this country.
