Bumper Sticker
I saw a bumper sticker this weekend that said " JESUS IS LORD, NOT ALLAH", It was attached to a large pick up truck with the NASCAR inspired number "3" also displayed in the side window.
I would hope that 911 and the subsequent Iraq war does not change our tolerance of other religions and cultures.
When has racial, cultural or religious tolerance ever been a problem in the good old USA?
There are over 7 million Muslims living in the US. Many are are from various racial backgrounds and highly productive citizens in our country. Thousands of Muslims currently serve in the armed forces risking their lives for our freedoms (including religious freedoms). Therefore a bumper sticker like that is offensive to many Americans, both Muslims and non-Muslims alike.
