Of course you realize what he professes and posts exposes more than just his problems with respecting the Constitution.

The Constitution is entirely compatible with Christianity. If it weren't, it wouldn't have been ratified. That's why anyone can, in good conscience, take the oath to preserve and protect the Constitution, and can regard it as the highest law of the land. However, when someone claims that his special insights into the spiritual realm permit him to run around arresting heretics, forcing confessions, etc., it's obvious (except to the maniac) that the Constitution is nothing to him. What we have with this thread is a full-blown declaration of insanity. A very dangerous form of insanity. I'm really surprised that this thread hasn't been moved.

Yes, of course the Constitution is compatible with Christianity and most other faiths, for that matter.

Muslims who allow or promote violence against, imprisonment or execution of those who preach Christianity or any faith but Islam would not find our Constitution compatible, however.

Isn't it interesting that Christianity thrives when Christianity ISN"T declared the religion of the state.

Faith cannot be "established" or decreed..much less enforced. Professing a belief means little when a State declares only one belief can be accepted.
