How because the laws prevent Christian beliefs being forced down people's throats?
Lets look at persecution, whenever someone has brought up and tried to enforce the separation of church and state, so-called christians has harrassed them and in one case (the plaintiffs in the most recent Supreme Court case stopping enforced school prayer) were literally driven out of town. The place for religious instruction is not the public school but the home or church. Is the position of your brand of Christianity so fragile that you need to force it down the throats of all children in school? larry On Thu, 24 Feb 2005 09:45:33 -0500, Matthew Small <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I agree with him...
