So I just got an email forward, most of which I dont have time to read, but this one was titled "Who reads the Bible?" It was about a gentlemen who sent ABC an email regarding their pro-homosexuality programming and the response he recieved to his letter. Basically, the representative told this man that he should stop reading the bible or using it to direct his moral compass. He said " You are in the minority in this country" and recommended the man follow United States documents, which "clearly" say he should be more accepting of what he thinks is wrong.
Um, correct me if IM wrong, but doesnt our constitution defend the minority? Its so sad that we live in a country where it is wrong for us to discriminate those who are in a racial minority, but its okay for us to offend people's religious beliefs? Isnt that as much of who we are as our skin color? Our gender? When did it become okay to trample other people in pursuit of your own rights? It shouldnt be American, but it has become the norm. It's definitely is not biblical!

No kidding! And supposedly in America, even the minority have the right to their opinion and perspective. I wish the Founding Fathers would have known about radio/TV/etc and could have addressed the garbage that is so prevalent today. I just don't think that this was what they meant by "Freedom of speech."
BTW< every time I see your blog title on my reader a certain Robin the small frog song comes to my mind. :) I know, it's off the topic.
