Heh, Who Knew?
I had to laugh, because the experience typfied my experiences in the South. The set up sounds like a bad joke: A Baptist, a Catholic and a Queer were having lunch...
....but, seriously, the amount they didn't know about religions only equalled the amount of hate they had for Islam. Now, I understand where that was born from, and, well, let's face it, religion runs on making sure you find something to hate and then creating the "cure," but in this case, they had no reason to hate other religions at all.
But, dang, as soon as they put up a Christmas tree, they thought, "You hate that don't you?"
"Not at all, I have two Christmaskkah trees in my house. WHY WOULD YOU EVEN THINK THAT?"
And, for atheists, they're always going to have to argue their point (but most people in the US don't even go to church), so that makes sense they understand all the misinformed out here.
I am not atheist, by the way. Not in any way. But it makes sense. Same with the Jews.
PRAYER MUST BE IN SCHOOLS!
If you're Jewish, there's a reason to be nervous by that sentence.
Just, interesting. Nothing wrong with it. Something to ponder. Given my multifaith background, I had to grow up knowing things from religions I had no intention of going near. But I still would visit various temples to get the good snacks, trust me! Oh...and faith too. God is too big for one religion and one path.
That I do believe.
Peace!
