"The radical religionists have confused 'freedom of religion' with the notion that means they can force everybody else to comply with their own religious tenets and rules.
The Christianists don't just want prayer in schools. They want teachers to lead the kids only in prayers to Jesus the Lord God and Savior and his angry vengeful sky-daddy.
They don't just want their Christmas crèches and Ten Commandments plaques in public spaces. They want those to be the only things allowed.
They don't just want their particular definitions of what is and is not a valid government-recognized marriage or child adoption to be codified into law. They want all other faiths' definitions—including non-religious secularism—to be outlawed.
Once again, it's projection. What they accuse others of advocating—special rights and all that twaddle—is what they themselves want. In short, to make everybody—including those who do not belong to, adhere to, or believe in their religion to have to follow their rules anyway." — Becca Morn, commenting on this post at AMERICAblog.
