I was suggesting that no one should fall for the “we need prayer in schools” to save our society and everything has gone to hell since we can’t have group prayer in a public place nonsense. We don’t need anything of the sort from the government. You’ll be close to Christ or far from Christ without regard to what the government suppresses or what the government “allows.” Christ himself was subject to one of the most oppressive, “unchristian” regime the world has ever known, and he was able to get his message across. I’m a big fan of Christ, and of a lot of Christian preachers, but this “Christians are suffering persecution in America” is a dangerous lie. But now I’m more intrigued by the number of downvotes. I wonder what people thought I was saying?
