Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. Does not say freedom from religion. It does say will not prohibit free exercise of religion. You are violently opposed to people's freedom to practice their religion. I must have missed a post here as I didn't see where John expressed such an opinion, violently or otherwise. Being opposed to having others religious views foisted upon you differs from being 'opposed to people's freedom to practice their religion'. It does not matter whether these others are moslems trying to force women to cover their faces or christian fundamentalists (or catholics) trying to impose their views on for example abortion on everyone else. |

Dissent, and even hatered are necessary parts of the democratic process. Could it be that Michael Moore is doing what he's doing because he loves his country and is deeply concerned about what is happening in it?? |
