Freedom of religion means freedom of others to believe differently

Many are complaining that this or that law is impinging on their freedom of religion.  However, some of these same people believe they have a right to impose their religious views on others through law.

Those who wish to impose their views on law seem to forget a tenet of Protestantism - the right to interpret the Bible for yourself, not just take on faith what the church tells you.  So, why is one Protestant church telling another Protestant church how to interpret the Bible?

Is National Day of Prayer a National Day of Hypocrisy?

A federal judge has ruled that the National Day of Prayer is unconstitutional.  Strict secularists are overjoyed and those in favor of public prayer are undeterred in holding National Day of Prayer events.  Many politicians of the right and the left plan to participate.

But are those who are in favor of a National Day of Prayer going to respect the following:

And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
Matthew 6:5-6 (King James Version)
