Not a free country

The time has long past when there is religious freedom in the USA. First we started with the Jews, now the Christians have joined. There is freedom for any other religion or so called "religion" such as evolutionism and scientology, but absolutely no tolerance or understanding of Judeo/Christian values and traditions. Like it or not; call them Deists or whatever non-Judeo/Christian term you choose; our founding fathers still based the foundation of this country on the ten commandments and Biblical values. Our Saviour is allowed to be used as a swear word anywhere in public - tell me what other religion would put up with having Buddha, Confucious, Mohammed, etc as a four letter word!

Islam is a violent, suppressive religion, yet is being portrayed as this beautiful approach to world peace. Totally ignored is the fact that they support violence or any means to spread their doctrine. Christians go in with medicine, food, teaching people how to better themselves and are tortured, slain, suppressed, raped, murdered, made fun of and persecuted in any way possible. Yet the UN does nothing about it, the various "tolerance" organizations look the other way, and the world in general labels us war mongerers.

And to add insult to injury MY tax dollars go to pay for my own persecution! Why is no one screaming separation of church and state when this production is put on? Because of media bias.
