Yes, it’s double bubble week this week, two for the price of one; both of them are comments about the late, legendary Charlie Kirk.
And yet, every so often, history reveals a figure whose life seems to rise above the ordinary. Someone who speaks with bold conviction to further the advancement of the Gospel. If there were ever an exception to the rule, if ever a man or woman of faith lived in such a way that their life echoed the very cadence of the Kingdom, it would be Charlie Kirk…. History may one day describe Charlie as one of the closest things Evangelicalism has ever had to a saint.– Samuel Rodriguez
And…
The more I learned about him, I thought, this guy is a modern day St. Paul. He was a missionary, he was an evangelist, he was a hero. He’s one, I think, who knew what Jesus meant when he said the truth will set you free.– Cardinal Timothy Dolan (Note: The good Cardinal was so impressed by Kirk’s “work” that he had never even heard of him before he was assassinated.)

Believing that only one brand of faith will set you free, should be called, (believing that only one true faith will not imprison (your mind and your heart). Unfortunately those who consider themselves enlightened, are often blinded by their own desires for ultimate theological knowledge and will not able to see the forests for the trees.
If anything in our constitution is crystal clear it’s that the first amendment has not got the authority to neither prohibit or establish any religion. However If we are all required to accept only Buddhist, Christian or Muslim faiths, we will be forever conducting our narrow minded politics at the expense of all the others. The desire to sanction only one kind of faith is so contentious is because too many of us feel insecure if there are gaps or risks in life that we cannot understand, therefore we push the idea that only our own faiths can offer all the answers
But, consider how one’s particular faith would suffer if our political system were allowed to marginalize other faiths as only those who know that their own faiths are different from the accepted legal norm, wouldn’t we soon see the doors of those unsanctioned churches be locked and barred due to the State’s wish that their books and and places of worship should either be outlawed or removed from public book shelves forever? and couldn’t other religious practices be deemed untrue and no longer be allowed?
Those who cannot accept that their own beliefs do not represent ultimate authority over all the others, might be suppressed and discredited and/or discriminated against while no limits are made on how their members can or tortured and disposed of by the one true faith. I can hear the chuckles comming from the one true way faiths now, because after all their faiths would not persecute others, while they believe most assuredly that all the other’s faith would. But check out the real history of religions and the tell me that your faiths would be different. The only thing that keeps our faiths confident only in themselves, is based on the idea that all the other faiths are wrong. But if all the others were considered wrong of misguided, do you really think that any religion approved by the state, would be capable of treating all other faiths as equals, with compassion and dignity,
Its only a matter of time before all the other faiths will be outlawed and have their books be favorited before all other books are destroyed or removed to places that keep them safely unavailable and well preserved! Because if any of them are allowed to keep worshiping in the manners that they want. that will raise the frightening prospect that other faiths might know more than theirs does and thus must be better the ours. Remember 1984?–perhaps the novels theme could also be quoted as, “All great religions are the same, but some religions are more great than the others,
