Thanks for encouraging people to stand up and fight for what is right! I believe this whole experience is a wake up call to the church in the United States that seems to have fallen asleep for too long. We must not take our freedom for granted, and in this case we must fight for more than just a statue, but for the very idea that we must always have the right to the expressions of our faith.
It is time to take up and speak up.

Just expressing my feelings. I hope, really hope, that those who proclaim a belief or faith in the founding of our nation take this as the last minute warning it is.

They have been silent too long, while watching the relentless erosion of our culture. If we truly are the majority it is time to stand for what we believe.

Contrary to present beliefs Christians are some of the most "tolerant" people. There is a sense of live and let live, but when our very foundations are under fire we have to stand and say, 'This far and no farther'.

I will chose not to live under this oppression of "tolerance" any longer. I believe in an absolute right and wrong, and can no longer pretend that those who don't agree with me are willing to allow me that view.
