[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Freedom of religion means that you have the right to practice your religion without prosecution or persecution. It does not mean your religion must be acknowledged as a federal holiday or on calendars. America is built on Christian principles. There’s no reason a public school needs to acknowledge Muslim or other holidays. WOULD YOU INSIST MUSLIM COUNTRIES ACKNOWLEDGE AND PROVIDE TIME OFF FOR CHRISTIAN HOLIDAYS?[/quote] it also means that if one religion is granted privileges or standing all religions get the same privileges and standing. You can draw up a calendar without respect religion, but once you openly include certain religions in the process, you open yourself to challenges that you are advancing one religion over another. [/quote] That’s not what it means at all. It means YOURE FREE TO WORSHIP AS YOUD LIKE. It does NOT mean the US must acknowledge or observe your religion. Only your right to practice it.[/quote]
