>Re religion, we not only have freedom
of religion, we have freedom
from religion.
Sorry Mike but the 1st amendment doesn't work that way.
Consider :
Freedom
from speech
Freedom
from the press
These do not exist, nor should they. The citizenry has every right to not listen or avoid religion, speech and the press, but they do not have a right to prevent another's right to engage in them.
Despite the current climate of legislating the purging of religious symbols from public and stifling speech through PC laws, I hold out hope that the original intent of the Constitution will eventually win out. Mind you, I'm not holding my breath. ;)
