In this country we enjoy freedom OF religion. Not freedom FROM religion. Get it?

Yes, we do have freedom from religion, if we want it. If an American adult doesn't want to go to a house of worship or to tithe, no one can make him. You have the right to knock on my door and tell me about your religion and I have the right to say no thanks.

What do you really mean when you say we don't have "freedom from religion"? That every American must have a religion, but has the freedom to choose which one? I don't think so.

No, Bleu. This does not mean every American must have a religion, it simply means that our representatives do not have to hide their religious viewpoint from the public. It means that we refuse to tilt at windmills (like Newdow constantly does) such as the suit to try to stop President Bush's speaking about Jesus Christ at his official appearances.
