“If we allow everything … where do you draw the line?” he asked.


scary. that's the whole point, is that freedom of religion is supposed to mean no state sanctioned, state supported religion. they are all supposed to be treated equally.
people are up in arms about the satanic statue going up next to the ten commandments-but you open yourself up to that happening the moment you put up a religious marker-you have to allow all, or none.
i see someone trying to have their prayer open a meeting and be disallowed, thus bringing about another case in court.


'In the event that you are still wondering what Bedrosian thinks about religious pluralism and tolerance in America, he isn’t hiding the ball here: “I think America, pretty much from Founding Fathers on, I think we have to say more or less that we’re a Christian nation with Christian ideology. … If we’re a Christian nation, then I would say that we need to move toward our Christian heritage.” Bedrosian evidently wrote a letter to the Roanoke Times in 2007 making this same point. There he argued that only Christians should enjoy freedom of religion in America, and that “one of the greatest moments in U.S. Senate history came when a Christian group recently shouted for God to forgive us during the opening prayer of a Hindu in the Senate.”'

unreal.
