Stahp with the stupid legislation, already.

Stahp with the stupid legislation, already. There is no war on Christians, people. Do you see lions? Know anybody who's been stoned to death lately? Do you see actual people nailed to actual crosses lining the roads? Do you!?

You are terrified, reactionary people who want to impose your interpretation of your religion on other people who don't agree with you. That is not "freedom of religion". It's a lot of things, but that it ain't.

Know what else? People are being persecuted and killed because of their religion, which continues to happen all over the world. All sorts of religions killing all sorts of other religions (tribes, ethnicities, etc.). And this is what you're worried about, this is what you find threatening.

Your whining because someone you don't know and will probably never meet wants to marry their boyfriend or girlfriend and is the same gender, your complaining because people acknowledge other seasonal celebrations than christmas, your moaning because you are expected to suck up your bigotries and prejudices if you'd like to continue to benefit from membership in a civil society is an insult to all the people genuinely being persecuted for their religion (or any reason, really). 

You are privileged, spoilt, nasty people. And, frankly, you are unAmerican. One of the things the founders of this country were specifically aware of was the political power and manipulation of religion and religious organizations in governing in Europe. They didn't want it. They didn't want persecution, either. Well, congratulations. You have directly and discriminatorily brought religion into governance in the United States. Religious freedom my anatomy.
