You say my viewpoint on religion is in the minority, but you forget that 80%+ of U.S. citizens are Christian. So I'd say the majority are suffering in silence as the vocal minority wastes time in the courts banning religion from public forums.

I'd say most of the 80% are observing the laws that the country was founded on, and are happy that fanatics like yourself aren't pushing denominational choices and personal religious symbols and whatever other dogma onto them when they go to get their driver's license registered.

Religion is a matter of personal choice. Personal expression of religion is your right, and also a matter of personal choice. You can stand in the street and express all you want, as long as you don't block traffic.

Putting religious symbols on public display in government buildings is neither personal (that's why its called a public building) nor does it involved choice for all the people that use that building - who gets to decide which religious symbol goes where?

Why do you feel the need to have religious symbols in government buildings? Isn't your church enough?
