Any thoughts on the Michael Sam Kiss on ESPN...

Regarding Beardo's claim of discrimination against Christians is "mythical".



Okay, I got in from work so here are some sources. I don't know what you consider "credible" but you can look it up. Google isn't hard. BTW, because you see Bible verses around you say "no dice" to censorship of the Bible. Wow, the logical flaws in that statement are stunning.

So know I will await your sources of censorship "cases are there where Muslims, Buddhists" in US schools that you claim.

Ok, I'll bite.

I'm not previously familiar with any of these cases, but just from looking at the article you linked:
1. The school's policy was that no religious books were allowed to be read during "free reading time," not just the Bible. Your article specifically says that, so it's not discrimination against Christians. It sounds like a pretty dumb policy, but I don't know what incidents occurred at the school to make them enact the policy. I doubt they just made it up out of the blue one day.
2. If that story is accurate and is telling the whole story (considering the source, I'm skeptical), I would say that's probably overreach. However, there's no evidence that it's specifically targeted at Christians. I would assume a verse from the Qu'ran would be similarly disallowed, probably with the support of the people who are mad over this. Like #1, there may very well be a good reason that justifies this policy, but even if there's not, it's not like Christianity is being singled out...
3. An opinion piece from Chuck Norris? Not exactly a very good source on this type of thing. I find it very telling that the article doesn't mention what the disallowed Biblical reference was. I'm assuming this means it was a very controversial verse, such as an anti-gay one. Remember, the Air Force Academy is generally considered to be one of the 2 or 3 most conservative major colleges in the whole country, so if it's something that was too right wing there, it's not going to fly anywhere. Also, I see no evidence that this policy, if it is indeed real, was for Christians/the Bible only.
4. Well no shit. If I went and publicly made comments like this I'd get fired from my job. So would you. So would almost everyone, including Muslims, Jews, etc.

So to summarize, you have a couple examples that might be government overreach if your stories are completely accurate and unbiased, and there aren't unreported justifications behind them, but even then they aren't specifically targeted at Christians, but at religion as a whole. And you certainly haven't demonstrated how a couple of isolated incidents from all over the country somehow are a grand overarching national trend -- I could like stories about anti-black discrimation picked out from around the country, but that doesn't mean America = 1980s South Africa.
