The faith that gave birth to tolerance is no longer tolerated! * Ten Commandments taken down; "Under God" removed from Pledge; Prayer prohibited; Nativity Scenes banned; Religious Art Music censored; Salvation Army Boy Scouts defunded; Christmas carols disallowed... * How did America go from Pilgrims seeking freedom to express their Christian beliefs to today's discrimination against those very beliefs in the name of tolerance? "From its beginning; the new continent seemed destined to be the home of religious tolerance. Those who claimed the right of individual choice for themselves finally had to grant it to others."- Calvin Coolidge; May 3; 1925 *DISCOVER HOW TOLERANCE TRANSFORMED ->From Pilgrims ->To Puritans ->To Protestants ->To Catholics ->To "Liberal" Christians ->To Jews ->To Monotheists ->To Polytheists ->To All Religions ->To Atheists ->To only the Politically Correct "The frustrating thing is that those who are attacking religion claim they are doing it in the name of tolerance.... Question: Isn't the real truth that they are intolerant of religion""- Ronald Reagan; August 23; 1984

A History Book That's Not A History BookBy Library GuyIf you live in Western Pennsylvania; and/or have an interest in history; this is the book for you.Pittsburgh: The Story of an American CityI would buy it again in a heartbeat! Here's why:Not only is this book organized chronologically; and its writing superbly composed; but the rare photos; paintings; and sketches chosen are described so that historic events REALLY are understandable. If only the schoolbooks of my youth presented history like this; I wouldn't have had such a time.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great resourseBy A. StarkeyI enjoyed the book about my 'near' hometown (I'm from McKeesport - across the river); but it did lack somethings that I would have liked.I was researching orphanages in Pittsburgh; and there is no mention of them in this book.The book focuses on mainly the raise of the industrialization of steel; and gives details of the problems with unions verses owners; and the violence that erupted when workers had finally had their fill of abuse.The book is printed on very nice shiny paper; and will be in my library for years without worrying about yellowing.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Beautiful and informativeBy DianeA beautiful book for our Pittsburgh collection. This vibrant city is so full of history and was instrumental in the building of America. It has wonderful sites; food and neighborhoods to explore. We will enjoy finding out more about our new home.
