Tolerance? and Religion


The faith that gave birth to tolerance is no longer tolerated!

How did America go from Pilgrims seeking freedom to express their Judeo-Christian beliefs to today’s discrimination against those very beliefs in the name of tolerance? “Back Fired” chronicles the history of this disturbing development now rampant in our country.

Do these headlines sound familiar?

Ten Commandments taken down
“Under God” removed from the Pledge
Prayer prohibited
Nativity Scenes banned
Salvation Army defunded
Boy Scouts sued
Christmas Carols stopped
Bible called ‘hate speech,’

Discover how tolerance evolved


From Pilgrims to Puritans
From Protestants to Catholics
From Liberal Christians to Jews
From Monotheists to Polytheists
From All Religions to Atheists
To only Politically Correct

“From its beginning, the new continent seemed destined to be the home of religious tolerance. Those who claimed the right of individual choice for themselves finally had to grant it to others.” – Calvin Coolidge, May 3, 1925

“The frustrating thing is that those who are attacking religion claim they are doing it in the name of tolerance. Question: Isn’t the real truth that they are intolerant of religion?” - Ronald Reagan, August 23, 1984
