text: how do we live in a "free" country, but only if you're the same genre of religion as the president? if we live in a country of "freedom", which i served in the military to help preserve, then why can you walk around with a bible, and a necklace with a torture device on it (crucifix) but not a pentagram?  and please remember that paganism (the worship of multiple deities) is a recognized religion by the government...in deference to george bush.... i know several people that follow the old religion and they have bumper stickers and pentagrams showing and with the exception of a few loons they have no trouble at all. you are free to worship goats, the moon, cow patties, or anything else here without government interference and as long as your practices do not conflict with existing laws [ you could not practice human sacrifice for example] you can pretty much do as you please. personally i have not seen any example of gwb doing anything to interfere with your practicing your religion or anyone elses unless you consider defending the country from islamic nutcases to be interfering with beliefs.
