I feel an obligation to address those practicing their lives through their faith.

Senator Graham stated Senator Scott is deeply faithful to God. Senator Graham went on to say Senator Scott was sitting in a common room in the Senate with headphones on. He asked what Senator Scott was listening to. Senator Scott stated, "My bible study."

Those words chilled me because Senator Scott could have been in the church when these assassinations took place. 

The USA prides itself on religious freedom. There are many faithful in the USA. The 'talk' about those that don't worship has to end. There are atheists in the USA. There should never be any hate against any religious event. We are all Americans, we all should recognize diversity and we all have the right to spiritual practice, traditional or otherwise.

No one in the USA should ever be compelled to speak against any form of spirituality. It is a vital part of personality and personal identity. Faith and religion should never be a political topic. 

Please, stop the hate first and foremost.
