[Ha Ha Thats Very Logical]

There are limits on the free exercise of religion, just like there are on the free exercise of speech, the free exercise of the right of assembly, and so on. One limit is that you don't get to have the government support, or even appear to support, your religion over others or over the absence of religion. You try to pretend that preventing you from having government support for your religion is the same as having active government support for some other religion. It's not.

Now, exactly what constitutes government support for one religion over others is a moving target and up for constant debate. But one thing that the courts have said many times, both liberal courts and conservative courts, is that asking teachers to present religious content in school is a no-no. It doesn't matter if the majority of people believe in that content--that's not how the Bill of Rights works.

3. If the "free practice of your religion" requires you to interfere with others' pursuits--if it requires you to disrupt a classroom or start preaching on a bus or shout Bible verses during "immoral" movies--you should stay home.

So everyone else gets to freely practice their religion in public,except Christians?

Are you saying that the free practice of Christianity involves the behavior I listed? Not my version, it doesn't.

Is that anything like interfering with others' pursuits through the filing of lawsuits?

No, it's nothing like it.

The first is the free exercise of one's religion. It doesn't have to interfere with others pursuits unless they let it.

So once again, you're claiming that interrupting science class to ask "gotcha" questions of the teacher, preaching on the bus to people just trying to get home from work, and ruining people's ability to enjoy movies you think are immoral is part of the free exercise of Christianity? And that other people just shouldn't let it bother them? That's your understanding of Christ's message?

Some people are way too easily offended.

I agree with you there.

>>>>>> Nooo but it sure seems to be YOURS!

I suggest reading the New Testament to understand Christ’s message.

AND review the myriad lawsuits.

You might find a few to fit your worldview but the vast majority won’t be Christians attempting to inflict their wordlview but exactly the other way around.
