Dear Stephen,

Your views on religion are indeed hysterical. I must agree that, since I am Christian, it is the true religion. But, I also think that others should be respected and awknowledged even though we may not agree. If someone draws a picture of Jesus, people may critic it or just say that it is everywhere. But if someone were to draw a picture of Mohammed, a mere profit, the Muslim world would descend into chaos and the artist would be blow to smitherenes. I do not say this to critisize muslims, but I am pointing out how both you, and the majority of americans would expect reactions to pictures of religious figures. I also have noticed how when Christians go to war, the fact that God is on their side has allowed them to either win militarily or through economy or society. To be blatant about it, Christians have never lost.

In addition to this, I have noticed how you say protatinism is heresay. I must disagree with you on this because I am Lutheran, but I understand how you feel about different sects of Christianity. I would also love to see one united religion, and I don't understand why the average person would care about the swapping of a word in the nicene creed or the Lord's prayer. I honestly doubt they do care. Your poem on the ACLU is hillarious. I'm sure it really sticks a pole up the media's rear!

I love how America is supposed to be a free country religious-wise, but people that are Christian do not treat people of their own religon as well as others..... I do not understand this at all. Why should other religions be allowed to practise in public schools while Christianity is not, and why are people not forced to say the Pledge of Allegiance! I shouldn't matter whether or not it mentions God! It is a pledge of allegiance to your country that you should love. If you do not love it, move to China or Russia. That, or do something about it without breaking the rules the Constitution has layed out. Also, Christians have free speach too, so why can't we pray in school?Neither the First nor the Fourteenth Amendment was intended to stifle all rapport between religion and government and thus the majority of Americans should be allowed to pray in public!
