But not everyone in America practices this very tolerant point of view. my older daughter by the time she was 10 years old was having to deal with extended relatives who were more fundamentalist Christian telling her, for example, that "She was going to hell because she wasn't Christian enough.
I myself was told that only the people in my own parents Christian sect were going to heaven when I was 10. Since I was 10 years old and very logical and scientific minded I remember thinking, "This can't be right billions of people are going to hell?"
As I became more of an intuitive and God let me see into some heavens I realized that almost everyone goes to heaven in the first place and what most people think who say only a few go is just a lie anyway to make people afraid enough to give all their wealth to that church and that's all it is really about in the end.
No. Freedom of Religion means all Christian groups, all Muslim Groups, all Native American Groups, all Buddhist Groups, All Sikh Groups, all religions of any kind who abide by the Laws of the United States.
If people don't abide by the U.S. laws they are going to go to jail or be killed by police or the army. However, religions that abide by the law do just fine here in the U.S.
And that's the point Obama was making today. We are nothing as a nation if we don't support Freedom of Religion because that is why people first came here in the first place to Plymouth Rock in 1620 and stayed alive here and didn't all die off like other first colonies did.
