Inspiration behind political correctness.
How ridiculous can political correctness and the attempt of secularists to impose their lack of values on society be? The Godless in society cite the United States constitution claiming a wall of separation between church and state as their guiding principal and use that misperception of the First Amendment as the vehicle for imposing absurd workplace policy.
The specifics of this case can be found in the following link to an article in the Sun Sentinel.

One would find it hard to imagine how much license against the belief in God and practice of faith morally bankrupt petty fools have inferred from the First Amendment. This amendment is short and to the point on religion and other matters, it reads:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
The architect of the First Amendment was Thomas Jefferson who also authored The Declaration of Independence the document which set forth the philosophy on which our republic was founded. Before going into the specific grievances the colonists had against Great Britain, the justification for succeeding from the British Crown was made clear.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed…
The intention behind the First Amendment was to ban congress and by extension, the states from imposing a state religion on the population creating an institution like the Church of England or establishing a religion as the state religion as the European nations that embraced Roman Catholicism. The history of American colonization is full of examples where colonist fled Great Britain in pursuit of free religious expression in the New World whether it was Lord Baltimore’s Catholicism in Maryland, the Quakers in Pennsylvania, or Pilgrims in Massachusetts. The First Amendment guaranteed the individual the right to worship as he or she desired without the threat of state sanctions against that practice and that there would never be an official religion of the United States. No where was it prescribed that our fledgling republic should be a Goddess state.
There are declarations which provide for a Godless society. For more information, consult the Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx and Frederick Engels. Modern politically correct society is much more oriented to following the concepts of Communism than it is a Constitutional Republic.
Where does the sadistic inhumane outlook of modern liberalism raise its ugly head more than in this sad situation in Florida. When a Chaplain, a spiritual person on staff to provide spiritual comfort to dying patients cannot express herself from her spiritual background, the movement toward a godless society has gone way too far. How weak and sickly their rationale is that they cannot tolerate even being present to hear or witness someone else expressing their religious convictions. Nowhere in any cases whether it’s this one or the numerous situations where people speaking as individuals, such as students in classroom situations, has there been any attempt to convert nonbelievers or force as religion on those who don’t agree with the person with religious convictions.
Jefferson envisioned a society where there would be open expression and debate of all ideas not denying expression of those that some find offensive, and perhaps those who have difficulty hearing others profess their belief in God ought to pause and reflect. They just might learn something that could add tremendous meaning and comfort in their shallow empty lives.
