What the entire country needs to realize is that this nonsense about separation of church and state in completely un-American. It comes from article 52 of the
Soviet Union's constitution!Soviet Constitution

My first thought was to just tell the atheists to go to he!! but I don't suppose that'd be effective, would it.

I actually agree with them, but not on the First Amendment debate. The Feds shouldn't fund any program like this, the states however, should have that right.

Is it my imagination, or has the discrimination and harassment of Christian organizations stepped up in the last 36 months?

I wonder how much Federal money goes to muslim, hindu, etc. groups that are working in THEIR communities to help at- risk kids. I would imagine these local groups, regardless of faith, are better able to help them some massive bureaucracy in Washington that just sends a check to the family.

Forget about the Soviet Constitution. Where does it say in OUR Constitution that my property can be taken from me at gunpoint to be given to someone else for funding the tutoring of ANYONE. Let's see...that's Article...hmmm...doesn't exist. How about that!

"It is vital to buttress the Jeffersonian 'wall of separation between church and state' which has served our nation so well." What about the Constitutional protection of religion?

Is it my imaginationI am not sure, but it might not be your imagination. This is another reason why I was out of the country in Oct and Nov, scouting out a new place to move to? BTW, I found it, and I didn't want to come back.

Could be that it has stepped up because of faith based programs. That really stuck a burr under their saddle.

"Mentoring to convert is not a suitable social service to be provided by the government," Yes, it's much better to just let these "at-risk" youth committ felonies and go to prison. Better to have them rape, rob and kill then to believe in God and themselves.

These guys are going to keep harrassing religious organizations until they can have sex with the kids aren't they?!

This atheist group is very lucky that Christian groups don't behave like Muslim groups, because if they did you wouldn't hear a peep out of these swine.

It's not your imagination. The writing is on the wall for all to see. Most turn a blind eye to it and are fearful to speak out. Others may naively think it's all about them and the Party. Therefore, as long as their station in life is fine and the fridge is full all is fine and dandy. But, it's not about you and me -- it's about the collective, all of us, Christianity and its culture.

To: warchild9
Yep. And why would any self-respecting religious organization want to put themselves in the position of being subservient to the Federal government? Beggars can't be choosers, don't 'cha know. If the Feds are footing the bill, then when they say "Jump!" the religios can only say "How high?"
