[Pelayo]

Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed…

Of course that is a major anti-biblical statment technically... All authority comes from God alone.

[equal treatment]

"Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed"

Yes, but God can't, or doesn't choose to vote! This is likely why there are such protections, rights and obligations especially found in the state constitutions for people to worship God. This way, the founders could best guarantee a moral and biblical godly based government far into the future.

However, we have failed to do as Christ said to "give unto Caesar" and obey the intentions of our founding fathers to influence our government for God. We are asleep at the wheel as radical groups of people are in our state houses day after day turning the tide against God.
