I have to agree with this! I was raised Lutheran and I never quite figured out
why they felt the need to pick on and persecute every other religion out there.
I mean, You would think in this day and age that people would be smart enough
to say "You have your way, I have my way, lets just agree to disagree.", but it
seem like that's too civalized. I've seen bumper-stickers that are "(pentical
picture) Clergy." The people who have those have a tendancy to get their cars
attacked, just for their religion. If it's ok for Christians to walk around
with Jesus fishes and crosses everywhere in the known universe, why not Pagans?
And, I would say something about religious holidays, but Y'all have already
stolen the times for those. I mean, Look up your religious Holidays, then look
up the pagan ones. I can guarentee the pagan ones came first. >.<
