Howard is what I would consider a Christian Fundamentalist - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamentalist. You may not believe in his point of view but he will not waiver. What I don’t see is him calling for any action against the people he believes is going to hell. I don’t have a problem with Howard stating his believe no more than I would a Islamic fundamentalism stating his views. If Howard started talking about hurting another person then I would have an issue with his position. This isn’t a case of where someone yells ‘Fire’ in a crowded building.

As far as he shouldn’t make comments like his it reminds me of a quote from the movie “The American President”

Everybody knows American isn't easy. America is advanced citizenship. You gotta want it bad, 'cause it's gonna put up a fight. It's gonna say, "You want free speech? Let's see you acknowledge a man whose words make your blood boil, who's standing center stage and advocating, at the top of his lungs, that which you would spend a lifetime opposing at the top of yours. You want to claim this land as the land of the free, then the symbol of your country can't just be a flag; the symbol also has to be one of its citizens exercising his right to burn that flag in protest." Show me that, defend that, celebrate that in your classrooms. Then you can stand up and sing about the land of the free.
