| They would remove the relgious-bias and restore it to the original, more historical, more free form. Better go back (thru historical documents) and see just what were the "basic beliefs" this country was actually founded on.
Where does the "whine" point come from? Recognize this:
"it's more the fact that those same people must find something, anything to protest and cry 'discrimination' against."
Would you tell the blacks of 40 years ago that they are merely trying to find something, anything to protest and cry 'discrimination' against? Would you dare?
The fact is, this IS discriminating against a number of people - a larger number than you would even admit. But even if it were only discriminating unreasonably against ONE person, it wouldn't be acceptable. And because the remedy - restore it to the historical form - discriminates against nobody, there is no reason not to do it.
Answer this: what if we put little bits of relgious text into ALL of our documents? How would you feel about your freedom then? What if the more documents you read, the more they supported a single belief system, perhaps a single Christian sect or a specific Jewish sect? Why do you think ANY relgious dogma should be permitted in government documents? |
