Freedom

America... freedom of religion.

Just as much as it also means

Freedom from religions.

No one is upset over freedom of religion. 
That's a given. 

The controversy... freedom from religions.

I will defend your freedoms of religions.

BUT WHEN RELIGIONS 

seek to force their beliefs upon others, 

There in lies the controversy. 

Religions defend freedom of religion.

And think that freedom from religion,

Is an act against their freedoms.

Think about that.

They can impose their beliefs Upon others... 

because others do not have freedom from religion.

Namely the abortion issus...

and yes... it is religion based.

This is how religions work. 
They want their freedoms...

While denying others their freedoms.

Politicians / Government  eagerly supports them

because they want their votes. 
Politicians are very good catering to any group...

to get their votes... and stay in  power.

Just like buying the welfare votes.

and Buying the "forgive student debt" votes.

and the special interest group votes.
