Just getting fed up with the way some people in this country want to turn a blind eye to the biggest threat to peace and security in this world today. Of course I'm refering to Radical Islam!! I understand that I have to be tolerant of other's religious believes, after all the constitution guarantees that everyone should have freedom of religion(or freedom from religion for those non-belivers out there). But it bugs the hell out of me when some people, and it's mosly muslims, will unfurl the PC banner and demand that everyone respect their religion, and at the same time demand that everyone else stop their religious beliefs. The best example is Merry Christmas. These PC thugs demand that everyone stop saying Merry Christmas because it offends their religious beliefs, but in caving to their demands aren't we trampling everyone else's beliefs? If anything they should take it as a compliment after all do we say Merry Christmas to people we don't like? Now I've heard that some muslims are demanding that schools not serve pork anymore. So the majority of children cant have a ham sandwich, because some muslim kid's dad might be offended. If he hasn't impressed upon his child what dietary restriction he must observe why do the rest of the kids have to suffer. It's as bad as the peanut butter ban enacted by some schools(but that a topic for another day!)
And now we watch as the radicals get bolder and bolder with their attacks upon the west. Shooting people because the drew a picture of their profit, cutting the heads off of "non-believers" and posting that for the world to see, and laughing at us as they do it, but we refuse to call a spade a spade and tiptoe around them so we don't offend anyone.
They (the muslims) move into enclaves and demand that they be allowed to govern themselves under their own laws even if those laws violate the laws and customs of the country their in!(this is happing in Europe Mostly). And when the people of that country try to speak out against such pratices they're labeled racist and neoNazi's sometimes by thei own government. It's only a matter of time before this starts happening here! (Deerborn Michigan comes to mind).
I normally consider myself to be a fair minded person, not prone to intolerance or prejudice, but theirs only so much a person can stand before they say enough. Okay I'll climb down for now.

So you're offended by other religious groups that are offended by your favorite religious holiday? How would you feel if we started closing schools for Ramadan?

Actually, according to your liberal lookup guide, Ramadan is celebrated depending on school demographics.

Lib, you are missing the point. This has always been a Christian Nation whether you choose to participate or not. What is troublesome is these people come here knowing what it is. They get here and want everyone to conform to them. If you don't like how a nation is, stay away, simple as that. Try going to their homeland, expecting conforming and see what happens.

So we're a Christian a nation founded on freedom of religion? And those damn Muslims should know that this is a Christan nation should convert to Christianity since we're a Christian nation, or just suck it up and quit complaining?

Persecute
per·se·cute verb
: to treat (someone) cruelly or unfairly especially because of race or religious or political beliefs
: to constantly annoy or bother (someone)
Maddog knows that the Freedom of Religion is a major part of the United States Constitution.. It was created so no man would be persecuted because of their beliefs..
Not even Dumbass Republicans..
That's what make's us Americans more than anything..

Well, we have had Christmas celebrated since as far as I can remember. Celebration of the birth of Christ. I realize it has been turned into a shopping bonanza. The true meaning is still there, but some are offended? Now we must shy away from it because they don't like it? Who is really being persecuted?

Everyday is a holiday and I choose to celebrate every single one.. Religious holidays are here to stay for all.. Only you can choose to or not to celebrate any of them..
Ground Hog Day is an awesome religious holiday for those that worship hog's that live in the ground..
