They Just Don't Get It

CNN Story

In the linked story, two ranking individuals from a Florida high school are facing possible jail time for violating a court order. The court order forbids the school district from promoting religion during school events. That is, the court order reaffirms the Constitution.

What gets me: how members of the religious right just refuse to understand a very simple thing. They don't have the right to cram their religion down the throats of everyone else.

I don't care what your beliefs are. I really don't. I just don't want you, either subtly or overtly, telling me what beliefs I should follow. Furthermore, it's a mistake to assume that just because most of the people you know are Christian that everyone is.

Why is this so hard to understand? Why can't the religious right leave the rest of us alone?
