you’re misunderstanding me…

i don’t have a problem with people practicing religion but i do have a problem with people taking it to serious…i think its a useful learning tool i just think @ some point you have to see beyond it & move on. its like going to school/college @ some point you’re done & you have to move on & become an adult & get a job.

taking it to serious meaning all aspects from: blowing something up int he name of your god, to controlling what you eat (no pork) (no meat on fridays), etc…

i do not think a religion should run a country.  
i do not think religion should be in public school

i think that article is hyopcritical…they say they don’t what a theocatic state but @ the end they show how they are a form of it…just based on christanity & not islam.

on a side note… my belief requires me to eat meat on fridays …perferably hotdogs.
