Clarence Thomas on Establishment Clause
Elk Grove

“The First Amendment does?” O’Donnell asked. “Let me just clarify: You’re telling me that the separation of church and state is found in the First Amendment?”

“Government shall make no establishment of religion,” Coons responded, reciting from memory the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. (Coons was off slightly: The first amendment actually reads “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.”)

“That’s in the First Amendment...?” O’Donnell responded.

The difference between Congress and Government is significant.

“law respecting an establishment of religion” is nothing like “establishment of religion”

Of course! Prohibition of the Federal Government from establishing a State Religion is not a categoric declaration of separation of Church and State . It is merely a HARD limit on the powers of the Federal Government with respect to the RIGHTS, God given by the way [although our pResident would prefer to say ALLAH but can't] as are ALL of the amendments in the Bill of Rights.

The socialist law students who laughed at her should be stood up against a wall and shot.
