""I think I have a right, as an elected official, because I'm Christian,I'm Catholic, all my decisions stem from my core belief, and I think I have a right to have people give an invocation and a prayer," Gilman said . . "
Gilman is struggling to explain where this "right" comes from.Is it (A) because he's an elected official?  Does that mean the rest of us don't have that right?  Is it (B) because he's a Christian? Do non-Christians lack this right? (C) because he's Catholic? Leaving Protestants and everyone else out in the cold? Or (D) because all his decisions stem from his core belief, that he "thinks" he has "a right to have people" give invocations and prayers at a government meeting?
Here are the rights Gilman actually possesses: the right to be a Christian and a Catholic and to pray to his god anywhere and any time he wants. Meanwhile, I possess the right not to have to believe in his god or to have to listen to his prayers when I'm attending a government meeting. Pretty simple
