Disturbing article on religion

President Obama speaks about Freedom of Worship rather than freedom of religion. The Constitution talks about Freedom of Religion, that refers not just to the right to worship; but, also to the right to live as your religion dictates.

In Europe right now people are voting on making the wearing of Burqas illegal, I have a problem with that. Muslim women wear them as part of their religion, we should not prohibit them from wearing them. We have no right to ask for our religious freedom if we do not allow others to have theirs.

The question is not just about religion, it is about freedom and government's NEED to regulate. Government should not attempt to control us anymore than is NECESSARY to provide for certain basics. Safety from other groups being the most famous. THE PEOPLE did not create government to tell them how to raise their children or what to wear.
