Mere freedom of religion is never enough for the evangelical true-believer. They tend to see anything less than being able to force their beliefs on others, as persecution. There is no group who would be quicker to persecute others given the power to do so.

This is the ego of the evangelical. They're going to preach or sing or whatever to the lord, and if you don't like it, you can lump it. I've heard similar stories of people, in one instance a woman, on a subway train, announcing: "I'm about to start preaching here," and going into a sermon full-tilt, with about as much consideration for the other passengers as the proverbial hole in the equally proverbial head. They are on a MISSION FROM GOD™, and manners simply aren't a part of the equation.

Frankly, she should have been removed from the flight, even if that meant delaying departure or returning to the gate ... but once again, Christian privilege ruled the day. Merde, alors.
