"Your religious freedom comes from [the Judeo- Christian]God."

It doesn't take much imagination to see how insulting that is to a Hindu American.

Hey, our Founders are who they were and were probably mostly men of the Christian Faith. We can't change that. I doubt they purposely intended to insult anyone, but, despite (or perhaps because of) their faith in the Judeo-Christian God, they did manage to establish a Constitution and Bill of Rights guaranteeing ALL of us certain freedoms including freedom of religion and freedom of speech while prohibiting the government the power to restrict or deprive us of same. If that is offensive or insulting to some, well, I just do not know what to say. I guess there was no constitutional provision to protect us from being insulted or offended.
