    the Trump admin uses "alternative facts", I stick to the facts and it was indeed the Trump admin that used the bible to justify separating children form their parents

    if you asked Trump though, he may try to take credit for the great flood

    So no references to God in Congress. No Congressmen allowed to wear any religious pins on their lapels. No prayer to open a session of Congress.
    Conservatives ain't gonna like you.

    This is a rule from nearly 200 years ago, that had nothing to do with religion, that was formulated in a time when wearing hats was standard for men.

    The rule is an anachronism. There is no reason not to change it.

    Kindly don't use my posts as a vehicle for spewing your juvenile anti-Trump bile, use somebody else's. Thank you.

    uh...try the Decaf, it's really just the same.

    I was making a joke about my mother though there were times she did seem to think the whole world was just different parishes, but she could actually discuss current affairs with surprising insight on occasion.

    It's as wrong to exclude someone because they HAVE a religion as it is to persecute someone because they don't. As Jefferson said ( sorta) "it's none of my concern as long as it neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg" I'm as against a religion that thinks they should rule the world as the next man OTOH this business that we should "invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert all their people to Christianity" is about as right out bollocks an idea as you can get.

    "The new House will have the first two Muslim females"

    That's the thin end of the wedge - 'Mighty oaks from little acorns grow.'? We're sleepwalking straight into it.

    It happens often, the Baker from Colorado and several florists from various states.

    religious freedom, it's not just for Christians - but don't worry, Muslims believe in the exact same God Christians do

    Last time I saw this many snowflakes people were shovelling driveways. Talk about 'much ado about nothing'. The Henny Penny brigade in full swing.

    Yeah, because as soon as a Christian's religion doesn't trump everything else in this country, they are being persecuted.

    religion does not give businesses open to the public the right to discriminate based on race or gender

    The rule about wearing headwear, even religious ones, is 181 years old. Maybe folks should get with the times and update that rule, it’s not pre-Civil War America anymore.

    Also, as far as “advantages” go, I fail to see how wearinh a baseball cap or beanie provides more or less advantage that actual religious headwear.
