[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 996292, member: 60724"] Eddie, are you saying that our government is telling you what you should teach in your churchs? I really don't think Christianity is under attack. People can still pray in public, people can still go to the church they want. People can still evangelize and practice their faith without fear of persecution. If those things were NOT true then I could agree with the use of the term "attack!" Also, giving examples of other more hateful, more intolerant, more violent religious sects and saying "what about them?" really isn't that helpful to the cause. Heck, my 17 year old son tries that when I complain about his grades, or his behavior, and he says: "I don't know what the big deal is, I'm better than my friends and their parent's don't give them all this grief!" To some Christians it may FEEL like they are under attack, but really the attack that they are sensing is actually (in my opinion) a questioning and an awareness that some of the firmly held beliefs that are slipping away in the secular world. Many Christians used to use the Bible as the reason women shouldn't vote (or hold jobs, or own things, etc), as to why slave ownership was okay, etc. They felt under attack too, I bet, when these things changed. Times change. God's laws can remain constant, and that's okay, but man's laws are fluid, and Romans 13 says that is OKAY and we are to abide. TJR [/QUOTE]
