Take the case of Yuba Community College (California) student Ryan Dozier who was handing out Christian tracts to fellow students when he was told to stop by a campus policeman. For his "crime" he could be expelled or arrested, he was told. The college followed up ... and it is now in the court system.
America was built on religious freedom and freedom of speech. I remember as a young girl in the 1960s hearing in Sunday school how Russia and Germany crushed down on Christians and did not allow them the freedom to worship ... and the implication was it could someday happen in America.
"No way," I thought ... and the youthful, innocent child believed it ... but many things are beginning to change my mind.
As we enter the Christmas season it will be interesting to see how much Christmas ... that time when we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ ... comes under assault again.
Edmund Burke, Irish orator, philosopher, and politician (1729-1797), said:
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."As we continue to do nothing, our rights are eroding.
Wake up, America!
