So you'd be cool with Muslim prayers before public high school graduation by the principal correct?
I would never move to a school district where this happened. Not that that matters because you weren't hoping to continue discourse with this rhetorical crap, you were just trying to make a fool of someone.
Thats the beauty of what we had before the liberal agenda took over. I would never move to a city on the coast because my relgious rights would be hampered by "fairness," even though other people had it "more fair" than me (as is the problem with a communist system). Unforunately, liberals aren't satisfied with mucking up their little slice of paradise, they want their trash policies to spread "fairness" all across this great land. Thats the problem.
tl;dr yes I'd be cool with that. If the majority agreed with it.

You can't possibly be this stupid. What has the govt done to "endorse" christianity that it hasn't done with say an official language?

If I moved to a country where the majority of citizens were Muslim, I would anticipate some Muslims customs being incorporated into the government and school systems. It might be a little awkward at times for my children, but I wouldn't whine incessantly about it and sue the government and attempt to ruin everyone's holiday over my differing beliefs. Most people I know would behave the same way.

Which is the real message here. The begrudging nature of the few cause strife for the happy-to-get-along many.

What If the majority was Muslim?
If a community was majority Muslim and they chose to publish fast times at the Courthouse for Ramadan, and had other observances (e.g. prayer to Allah at the commencement) that were clearly voluntary, and as inclusionary as possible - how is that objectionable to an unoppressed minority?

What are you talking about? I criticized O'Reilly in this very thread. You anger is causing you to speak out irrationally. Why do you hate Christians so much? Touched by a priest?

Ah I see.
You guys want a Christian theocracy.
You don't want religious freedom.
You want the Christian religion to be endorsed by our government.

Hmm...still not really an answer. Where is the constitution being violated. I citation to the particular part of the constitution would also be helpful.

Thats exactly it.
Actually, several people here have made honest arguments against your stance and your only rebuttal has been to ask inflammatory and rhetorical questions (in the liberal manner) and fly off the handle about some sort of Chris Matthews-on-election-night-esque media love-fest.
You clearly have no desire to debate honestly and would rather consume off brand colored-sugar-water of the flavor "liberalism and closed mindedness."

You can say whatever you want to say.
Bottom line is that our tax payer funded government cannot endorse a specific religion over another one.

Good god. What do you consider endorsing a religion? Is promoting it in some way? Something else?
yes your right, the fact that we don't have an official langauge was partly where I was going with my point..........eventually................
