Ted, However, Christians believe that because they are the majority in this country their religion should be intertwined with the daily life of most Americans.

No one is forcing you to pray. No one is forcing you to listen. No one is forcing you to take part in any religious ceremony.

Christian groups are working over time to get the ten commandments placed in gov't buildings, prayer allowed in public schools, crosses installed wherever there is a space and censoring whatever tv fare they find offensive.

They don't have to force me to pray to get me to object. The above is enough.

Think about it, Ted. You don't have the right not to be offended. If you did, then so would others, including those you "offend" on a daily basis.

Huh?

The only thing that truly offends me is the attempt of the religious right to impose their moral values on the rest of us with the expectation that all of us Christians should be going to church on Sunday and that religion should be intertwined with the gov't. If they would only practice their religion in private and leave the rest of us in peace that would be great. Instead, they try to proselytize at every opportunity and they want the world redone in God's image.

I doubt their behavior is any guarantee they will get through to the pearly gates. On the contrary, they may be paying a visit to the fires of hell for their pushiness.
