<<<<<because you think you ought to have an unfair advantage based on majority status. I see nowhere to go from here>>>>>

Do you think they feel this way because of "majority status"? Not me. I think they think that way because they "believe". When they as politicians - like Bush or Perry - say that God told them to do this or that, it doesn't come from being in the majority it is just they think they are better than nonbelievers.

I don't know where 'neutral' to religious faith is in the constitution and I know from my reading the FF's many of them said and demonstrated by their actions they didn't want that. An insistence on 'neutrality' can and is being used to suppress free exercise of religion and I've supplied some examples of that .... in re to the Houston National Cemetary. Yes, we'll have to disagree. I don't think the constitution requires enforcing 'neutrality'.
