To understand what the fuss is about I think you have to put yourself
in the minority view for a minute. For example, what if you lived in
a town that had an Islamic majority, and everywhere you went there
were Islamic religious symbols on display. After a while you would
probably come around to the view that Islam was the "official"
religion and that everything else,

Well, not if you were in America and ever went to school..

I think you're forgetting that the purpose of this exercise is to put
yourself in someone else's shoes for a moment. One of the big issues
is that the parents in "other" religions resent having their children
surrounded by christian religious symbols. I think that's
understandable.

I find it interesting that the left extols the virtue of exposing
children to diversity and alternate lifestyles but, somehow trying to
tolerate religious diversity is evil.

No, nothing evil about it. It's that to listen to a Christian, they'll
tell you that it's the end all, it's not to be questioned, and to do so
means that you will be subjected to a very violent death!

They don't seem to understand the difference between tolerance and
"establishment"

If a government advanced one religion to the exclusion of all others,
that is clearly unconstitutional but if they allow the exercise of any
of them it is complying with the actual words on the page.
