"The religious police are called the Supreme Court which, beginning in 1947, usurped power from the states and the people and made it a crime to practice religion in traditional manners."

Emphasis mine.

I was unaware that the nine Justices were, on their off-time, kicking the doors down at churches and synagogues and clapping their congregations in irons. I was likewise unaware that people of faith were being cast into prison for practicing their beliefs peacefully. WOW! the media is better at coverupt than I thought!

You learn something new every day.

Phil, you need to get a grip.

He lost the debate the moment he had to resort to insult and invective to answer arguments.

Congress established no religion in the founding documents. They recognized a generic Creator, but no specific sect/creed or flavor was established as compulsory to being a citizen.

No religious test is now or ever was established as a pretext to being a citizen or becoming naturalized.

I therefore don't see the point in claiming the nation is Christian.

No one stops me from practising a traditionalist religion. Matter of fact last time I was in church, I used the 1928 Episcopal Prayer Book, which has been around since SHOCK: 1928.

Cute, but since you obviously have no clue how things have changed since the 1947 Supreme Court usurpation, you might consider doing a little more research before rattling off like a babbling idiot.
