It has got to be the most frustrating thing on the planet to argue with a liberal about the so called "separation clause".

You can tell them until you are blue in the face, that it does not exist, and they look at you like your crazy.

On one occasion, I pulled my pocket copy of the Constitution out and asked this idiot to find it, after he claimed repeatedly that it is there.

He got frustrated when he could not see it and claimed I had ripped the page out.

Then he spotted the CATO institute name on the book and claimed it was a Republican version.

I tried, oh man I tried! But he never budged, he never accepted that it did not have a separation clause.

I determined that when he read the Establishment clause, that he read it correctly as not referring to separation.

It is amazing that a lie told thousands of times becomes the truth, and believers of that truth will accept no other.

Just so we know what we are talking about, the First Amendments says "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."

What will it take in America for the ACLU and the Supreme Court actually to recognize the WHOLE statement, not just the part they like?
