Freedom of Religion is also Freedom From Religion

I never know whether to laugh or get mad when Christians complain that the government is out to get them or that “there’s a war against Christianity”. Christians are the mainstream, and if anyone is waging a war, it’s them. The problem is the insistence that we’re a Christian nation. We’re not. We are a Free Religion nation. 

I want everyone to be free to practice whatever faith (or lack thereof) they believe in. I don’t have a problem with Christians being public about the practice of their religion. I don't care if a business puts up Christmas or Easter decorations. But don't bitch about other businesses celebrating Hindu, Buddhist, Wiccan, or even Moslem holidays. Your belief in "freedom of fill-in-the-blank" is measured by how much you extend it to those with whom you disagree, like the old quote "I disagree with what you say, but will defend to the death your right to say it." 

I just don’t believe in using publicly funded platforms to promote Christianity. School public address systems used for publicly led prayer (led by a principal on taxpayer time/salary), or a National Day of Prayer advertised with taxpayer funds (even if it IS non-sectarian) for example.
