The intent of this blog is to promote human equality, human progress, human peace and justice, and optimism. To accomplish this, to encourage the discussion of ideas after identifying and discovering problems, and then creating positive solutions for "we the people," in order to provide for the "general welfare" and "domestic tranquility" of America now and its "posterity" into the future. To encourage an emphasis on separation of religion and state for all, no matter if this is for those "of faith" in a Maker / Creator (Deists, God-loving people, Christians, various people of spirituality) and atheists or agnostics.

Crucifixes in European schools? Once again, the Roman Catholic Church doing the same thing a communist dictator does: utopia is only possible if everyone thinks the same thing.
A European court stupidly (without considering the rights of others) allowed the Roman Catholic Church to FORCE what IT considers RESPONSIBILITY upon citizens, running rough-shod over the RIGHTS of many people. To many PROTESTANTS, symbols are never considered for their use because these things usurp worship away from our Creator. The pope is ignorant about God the Creator and forces ignorance down people’s throats.
The article about this event mentioned those who would resent the presence of the crucifix: Muslims and atheists. The article said little about Protestant Christians who reject symbols. Once again, people are writing articles in the news and don’t present all the facts.
The Roman Catholic Church pushes a judgment upon all. Jesus Christ said, “Judge not lest you be judged.” The Roman Catholic Church judges. It is blasphemous.
I would resent a crucifix being in my classroom – as a student. As a teacher/professor, I would never place one in the classroom.
People need to seek wisdom, not certainty. I am a Protestant Christian and very happy I have been trained in this way. It would be judgmental on my part to say, screw the Roman Catholic Church, so I won’t. Perhaps the next thing the Roman Catholic Church will do is to treat all Protestants in the same manner that Martin Luther and others were treated – taking away our professions and our money. In that case, screw the church, which I say in self-defense.
