HuffPo has recently reposted a piece from the Religious News Service that talks about a Barna Group poll. This sums up the gist of the it fairly well, "While these Christians are particularly concerned that religious freedoms are being eroded in this country, 'they also want Judeo-Christians to dominate the culture,' said Kinnamon."
This is not new. There has always been a segment of theists who immediately throw a tantrum when their own beliefs are questioned or criticized despite their willingness to not only do the same to other but to do far worse. It doesn't matter that their own right are not and have not been threatened in any real way. They also don't see anything wrong in ramming their views down other people's throats or insisting that government should act like some type of theological enforcer.
It only amounts to "religious liberty" when it is useful to promote their own views or to denigrate the views of others.
