What bothers me about John Freshwater and his actions is they border on obsession, an unhealthy obsession. They HAVE to proselytize 24/7 and if they aren’t they feel like losers or they want to blame others and become the victims.
Most people who have unhealthy obsessions usually require mental help or worse they get put in jail for hurting others – but it seems no one really considers religious obsession wrong.
In an unnecessary and bigoted diatribe, Rep. Monique Davis (D-Chicago) actually decided that a citizen of her state had no right to speak in her state committee because of his religious beliefs. But that seems to be okay since the citizen was only an atheist.
There are some ministers of what are known as mega-churches who throw out that notion of a humble preacher who is only in the preaching business to proselytize. The US Senate wants to find out if tax payers are being taken for a ride.
It seems that Delaware County Prosecutor David Yost is the one not understanding what separation of church and state means. It doesn’t mean “scrubbing the name God from every inch of the public arena” and doesn’t only mean the government can’t establish a state religion. If a public servant can’t see or understand the harm they are doing then I have to question their judgement in all other areas.
