No religious freedom

I went to a discussion in Paltalk and heard a man who lives in rural Illinois claim that the US is a horrible country that has no religious freedom. His evidence was that he claimed that 85% of the children in the public high school in his neighborhood were afflicted with the AIDS virus. He said this proved that public high schools were evil since they were not religiously based, and it was evil to allow children to go to public schools since they are diseased. I was just stunned and did not know quite what to say. I said that even in Africa or Haiti or the inner city in Washington DC or in the gay community, an infection rate of 85% is unheard of. He said he would produce proof of this, but of course he did not. And then started to read scripture and to preach. Ah yes....
