Christians have wrong point of view

     Ok, this is going to sound anti-Christian, but in fact this should benefit Christians.  No, really....
I hear complaints like "they are taking prayer out of our schools" and the "War on Christmas", etc.  Now I can understand, if one hasn't stopped to think it through, a Christian might see these things as bad for them.  But I'm asking you to think it through.  You have the wrong point of view.  First, as a former Christian, I know that I could pray at any time or any place.  It would actually be impossible to take prayer out of schools or anywhere.  The rule to not have a classroom led prayer is actually beneficial to everyone, Christians included.  You want separation of church and state.  (taliban) You should care enough not to force a Christian prayer on Jews, and followers of other religions.  That is not a good witness.  No one is telling you or your kids that prayer is bad or that you shouldn't pray.  Pray all you want, just don't force it on all of the kids.   I attended a Bible study group in High school...it's all good just as long as it's not endorsed by the school or forced on anyone.
Christmas is coming.  NO ONE IS TRYING TO TAKE CHRISTMAS AWAY!  Read that again please.  The whole point of any attempt to change "Merry Christmas" signs to "Happy Holidays" is to involve EVERYONE, not just YOU!  News flash....not everyone is a Christian.   Put up statues of Jesus, Santa, and all the flashy lights you want, more power to ya...again...NO ONE IS TRYING TO TAKE CHRISTMAS AWAY!   Just don't make our public schools or our government buildings endorse one religion.

Bottom line....you are not being persecuted!  You still have the freedom to practice your religion, no one is trying to take that away.  In fact, many, if not all Atheists, Agnostics and followers of different religions would fight for your right to do so.  That is what we love about the U.S.A.  But don't try to make the government endorse your religion and force it on the rest of us.  If you want to convert everyone to your religion...do it with love.  Why do I need to tell you that???
Amen.
