Poll: 44 percent agreed that “Christians get on my nerves”

January 21, 2008 By admin

“An overwhelming 90 percent of adults agreed that faith groups should be allowed to rent public property, such as a school gyms, if laws gave non-religious groups the same right. Asked about allowing a moment of silence in public schools, 89 percent said that was fine. Another 88 percent said teachers should have the right to wear jewelry, such as a cross or a Star of David, in public-school classes.

(…)

“The key is that religion is bad if it makes large numbers of people uncomfortable.”

(…)

“The trend is clear. Vague talk is safer than clear action. Personal beliefs are good, but not if these doctrines lead to actions that indicate that some beliefs are right and others wrong.

“Seeking is good, but finding is bad. Judging is even worse.”
