CathNews reports that bulletin boards are appearing around the country bearing this message from the Freedom From Religion Foundation and causing a stir. Those old enough will recall the John Lennon song with those three words in the lyrics.
Another group, In God We Trust USA, is striking back with this counter message along the roadways of America:
I'm pleased to note that this page featured a virtual "bulletin board" over this past Sunday's homily bearing a quote from the pope's recently published letter on the economy and human development, Charity in Truth.

I expect some of those wanting freedom from religion might express themselves better if they said they wanted freedom from imposition on them of judgements made in the name of certain religions which hold political sway in the US. I support the separation of church and state because I do not want to have anyone else's religion imposed upon me. Thus, I want freedom from religion so I may continue to practice my Christianity unmolested.
ReplyDeleteThere's a very good group called Americans United for Separation of Church and State which tries to protect all of us from having any religion dominate the country. This way all of us are free to worship in the way we choose.
