[Kip26393]

I think your post was well stated. I’d just like to focus one comment ‘respect’. when I, an atheist, or my friends who are Pagan, or others who are Buddhists, see references to God in and around Government or School bodies, we can feel excluded, or disrespected. I ask people who are Christian, how they would feel if they walked into a court room, and teh judge had over his head, an image of naked Devil worshipers, with their first commandment being ‘thou shall not ever believe in God’. And you are known in your community as a good Christian. would you worry about getting a fair trial in this court room? Can you imagine being gay, and trying to get a fair trial in a Fundamentalist’s court house? Or being a Hindu in a room where the plate says ‘thou shall have no other god before me?’ It’s frustrating when you see it on money, but it’s out right frightening when your personal judge proclaims that he believes in the OT, where they killed gays, adulterers, and people who worshiped other gods.
