Whose "truth'?  You have a particular understanding due to your particular form of religion. Others have a different understanding, often due to their particular form of religion.   There is a wide range of belief within christianity, not to mention a huge range among all religions. Some do not believe in religion. In our country, ALL of these beliefs must be respected. This is not a theocracy and conservative christians have no more right to impose their beliefs on all than do Muslims who believe in sharia law.

Why should your understanding "trump" the understanding and religious beliefs of others?
