I'm fully aware that you guys like to tell yourselves that you've "won", and pat each other's back. However, I also am fully aware that those who read these debates with intelligence and sanity will realize that not all conservatives are fanatics who want America to be some sort of theocracy.
You guys CANNOT win...the Constitution itself does not support your position, and is not interpreted that way.
"Bulls**t!"
And it is with that style of debate that you claim victory? Please. I'm sorry if actually quoting the Constitution enrages you so. It is interesting, however, how so plain a statement as the First Amendment is so incomprehensible to you that you must use any and all manner of rhetorical fallacies, quote-mining, and spin to deny that it says what it says. I bet you screech, too, when liberals do it with the Second.
Actually the constitution does, and the historical evidence backs it up. However, you are correct that it is not "interpreted" that way today.

Maybe you should just go hang out with your comrads.
