"Congress shall make no law ..." is how I believe the First Amendment starts out. It says nothing about the states.

The above wording is what the Founders signed off on. Which is what I so clearly pointed out in my post.

A state-sponsored and state-funded religion is not a theocracy. Geez, even England wasn't a theocracy. I have no idea what you're talking about.

You have no idea of what our Constituion 'is talking about', paulsen.
You're a hopeless case.

As I said earlier:
-- You specialize in making pointless, nitpicking observations and it's become obvious that your pitiful need for attention is driving you mad.
Get a life. -- If you feel it is your mission to bedevil everyone on FR, at least make some ATTEMPT to keep your comments in context & apropos to the discussion at hand.
As it is, most of your posts amount to little more than spam.
