Back to basics and reverse discrimination
"In Denver, a family was forbidden to hold more than one Bible study in their home each month, despite the fact that it was a small group and there were no neighborhood crowding or parking problems. It seemed that because they were Christians, they could not enjoy the same freedoms allowed all other groups.
There's more. When the Supreme Court was debating the constitutionality of partial-birth abortion, there were two groups protesting. The Christians were praying that the judges would decide that they did not have the constitutional right to perform partial-birth abortions; the others were 'pro-choice.' The group arrested by the police: the Christians who opposed partial-birth abortion.
Regardless of your faith, don't forget Germany. Hitler persecuted specific ethnic groups one by one. When people did not protest (because it wasn't 'their' group), the day came when everyone feared that knock on the door.
'Freedom of religion' is a phrase to which it appears many people in the courts and the media seem to have added another phrase -- 'unless it happens to be Christianity.' Think about this: Christians initially started all hospitals. The Salvation Army, orphanages, the Civil Rights Movement and Habitat for Humanity were started primarily by Christians. Twenty-five of our first 27 universities, and many other humanitarian organizations, including public schools, were started so people could learn to read -- the Bible."
Least we forget what built our values- stop the attacks on religious freedom
