Re: Republicans rally against 'war on religious freedom'
Just curious, what if it had said Muhammad's teachings. I know it's a hypothetical question, but would that have been seen as less offensive? I am with FD on this one, and don't think either really is appropriate for a public transit system.

Re: Republicans rally against 'war on religious freedom'
While I don't agree with either of those ads being rejected. Mohammad is clearly aimed at Islam whereas God is more broad that covers most religions.

Really good point. The ad should have said "Dont Believe In Allah?" in order to properly contrast it. While perhaps lesslikely, it wouldnt surprise me if they would have refused "Dont Believe In Jesus".

Re: Republicans rally against 'war on religious freedom'
the "freedom of religion vs freedom from religion" argument seems to being heating up amongst the devout christians and meddling non-christians . .
should a christian prayer be allowed at a public high school graduation? should a pastor be able to hold a sermon on a public beach without a permit which is required when more than 50 people want to assemble? idk and frankly i feel lucky to say i really dont care. although i do find religous zealots' wanting their beliefs to be law funny.

Sarah Palin 'taken aback' by Pope Francis's 'liberal' statements – The Lead with Jake Tapper - CNN.com Blogs
Of course, she would be the one person who would call out the pope

Re: Republicans rally against 'war on religious freedom'
I'm not catholic but has always paid close attention to the papacy. So far pope Francis has been a breath of fresh air and really the message of inclusion in the church has been encouraging. So naturally Palin objects. I think Francis is gonna bring peeps back to church.
