Hi Barbara,
I think you're right. Sometimes things are taken too far and the answer is not muting the people but preaching tolerance.
Hope you have a great holiday season.

Comment from MelB
Well said! This political correctness has gone way too far. I believe it is just another attempt to remove God from everything. We can still treat people kindly and the way we want to be treated, but it doesn't mean we go along with everything either. One of my favorite quotes is, "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." - Edmund Burke

Comment from davisr (Rhonda)
Thank you for stating what so many of us feel!
Yes, religious tolerance is necessary, and separation of Church and State, on of the bylaws of our country, but it goes too far when our rights as Christians are violated. According to the law, Christian beliefs can be expressed in the schools so long as the other groups are allowed the same privilege, including Satanists. Not many people know that, but it's true. One reason schools are afraid to open the door to any expression. But that's also one of the precepts of our country--freedom of speech.
Great prose,
Rhonda

Comment from Ric Myworld
Amen! Everyone else speaks up about their beliefs and teachings, while those of us who are believers of Jesus Christ and Christianity are pushed farther and farther into the background. Personally, I think it's time that we all stand up for our beliefs. In 1955, 98.6% of Americans were professed to be Bible believing Christians. As of 2005, that percentage had dropped to around than 45%, and the number has and will continue to decline as long as we cannot even post the Ten Commandments. Something that if followed will only make us better people, Christians or not. Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas!

Hi Barbara,
I agree that things have gone way too far in this country, especially when our God-given (and once recognized) religious rights are being stomped upon. So thanks for sharing your view on the subject. I believe it's the view of many.
I wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Hugs,
Lois

Thanks for your concern, Barbara. Everything is fine here. I'm just not spending much time on FS these days, other than popping in and out to see what's going on.
Comment from Phyllis Stewart
Wonderful, Barbara. I'm glad you spoke up. I think a lot of folks are sick of Christians being treated like enemies while Muslims are invited in by the thousands, even though many of them want to kill all of us. The world has lost its good sense. Here and all over Europe, PC is destroying nations... literally. Look at Germany. I'm glad Trump hates PC. At least now people are saying Merry Christmas again. It's a start. :)
