IMO, this is just as wrong as making children sit through school sanctioned prayer.

There are other examples that come to mind, but I think I've made my point.
I agree with you on that one. It seems like the worst offenders on both sides are the ones who are desperately afraid of anyone who thinks anything different than they do; rather than allow others to "live and let live" or seek common ground, they seek to completely eradicate the opposing viewpoint from the marketplace of ideas.
