Do you have the courage to spread this around unashamed?

• Bonnie Jean Hern  I sure do. My question is if all these others want Christians to stop what they are doing, what about the ones complaining. Has it ever occurred to them that what they are doing is offensive to Christians? In this world everything that everybody does is going to offend someone else in some way or another. I guess the only way to have peace is for everybody to just kill themselves. That way there wouldn’t be anybody to offend anybody else and God could start humankind all over. Maybe then nobody would offend anybody else and there would be peace. Why can’t people just not pay attention to whatever it is that offends them and do what they believe is correct and let everybody live their life in peace. But for some reason there are always going to be trouble makers. At the rate we are going there isn’t going to be any world left for anybody to offend somebody else in. Come on people, live your own life and let other people live their life and stop causing problems for everybody. Sorry. I didn’t mean to write a book.

       The above was my response to the post on Facebook. I find it really hard to accept that the government has gotten to the place that any time one faction complains about another faction, the faction being complained about loses one of their constitutionally given freedoms. Our Veterans fought for us to be able to enjoy our freedoms, not for one faction after another to keep taking them away from us. It’s getting so bad that pretty soon people won’t even be able to come out of their own house because their looks offend someone else.

       Why do we adults have to be so petty? That’s all that it is. We are just being petty about nit picky things. As long as you can practice your religion or lack of religion, let the other guy practice his beliefs or lack there of. If you can’t eat pork but the other guy can, then don’t eat pork, but don’t take that joy away from the other person. People need to be more tolerant of each other.

       If I don’t tell you to stop practicing ASHURA, where all of your men cut and mutilate their self and even cut their sons because it’s your religion, then don’t you tell me to stop eating pork or even showing pictures of pork. To me the practice of ASHURA is VERY OFFENSIVE, but I have not asked the government to make you stop practicing it. That is your religion and you have a right to practice it. I just need to make sure that I stay inside on that day so I won’t have to witness all of the blood shed. Like so, you need to stay away from where there is pork, or even pictures of it. Or you could just try to keep away from looking at it.

       Here is an article from what I found on a Google search about ASHURA. Just look at how bloody and repulsive it is.

  ASHURA: My favorite Muslim holiday, where Shiite Muslims celebrate in the streets by self-mutilating themselves

  Ashura marks the death of Prophet Muhammad’s grandson, the revered Imam Hussein in Karbala, Iraq 1,300 years ago.

  

  Ashura, an optional fast day for Muslims, falls on Dec. 4-5, 2011. The word itself, ashura, means 10, and the holiday is the 10th day of the Islamic month of Muharram. The Islamic calendar is lunar, so the date of Ashura can vary depending on sighting of the moon.

       Don’t try to come into my country illegally and then try to take away all of my freedoms. If you are going to do that and cannot find the power within yourself to just keep away from looking at my beliefs or hearing my practice them when I recite them, such as the Lord’s Pray, The Pledge of Allegiance, or singing the National Anthem, THEN GO BACK WHERE YOU CAME FROM. You are not welcome here.

       You know that if I came to your country and tried to have your government make ASHURA illegal, and you had to stop practicing it, then you would throw me out of your country as fast as you could. Why can’t you just be happy that you are even being allowed to stay here illegally as it is? Because you are an UNGRATEFUL ILLEGAL ALIEN that should not even be allowed out of your own country.

       Don’t come to my country and try to make our children practice Muslim by you teaching it to them instead of the required curriculum. I don’t try to make your children learn Christianity by going into your schools and teaching it to them even though I am not supposed to. Just be happy to be allowed to practice your religion, and leave me alone to be able to live my life practicing what I believe in.
