There's also plenty of black people who are against welfare and police reform, women against abortion and transgenders, etc..
Does that lend them any special standing to be among the effected?

I get the impression 'Thanksgiving' is quite deeply embedded in European American culture. It makes sense for those (originally) fleeing persecution for their beliefs to find ways of making people that don't share those beliefs to be at least uncomfortable and at best persuade them to sod off back to wherever they came from. No point in having leverage if you don't use it .. kind of like holding a trump (Trump?) card and not using it.

Sounds like a good topic for another thread. Why don't you start it and see if anyone gives a fuck.

IOW, you can't defend why you think it matters that a Christian doesn't like posting the Ten Commandments.

Got it.

I just like the argument itself having once been a devout Christian. Of course that doesn't serve your political black and white agenda, but then who cares?

No, you're just afraid to engage with the simple analogies I've made.
