"Separation of church and state" is written in the Soviet constitution

not

the US constitution...

The US Constitution has written, "

Congress

shall make no law..."

not

"The Indiana State Legislature shall make no law..."

The goal of phony "civil liberties" groups like ICLU is to remove anything Christian from public property, while simultaneously eroding private property rights so that everything is "public." Then there will be no place for anything Christian, including your own body, since that will also be a property of the state.

This sort of thing boils my blood. It should with conservative Americans that value their Christianity. I can't see how we can just sit back and now raise some h*** over this. I'm tired of it.

A prayer isn't a law. Whatever happen to free speech and free exercise and all of that?

The idea that the Constitution states that there is a "separation of church and state" is an fraudulent idea foisted on an unconscious and uneducated American public in the 40s by the parent ACLU. ACLU has been tearing the foundation of our country ever since. This must be stopped. First and foremost, the Constitution does NOT say anything about "separation of church and state". People must understand this.

Congress shall make no law establishing or restricting the free excercise of....

Wouldn't banning them from praying or any reference to Jesus be, a law restricting their constituional right to express religion?

I know I shouldn't expect them to be able interpret the Constitution, they're lawyers.

Exactly how can you have "prayer in the Judeo-Christian tradition" without being able to mention the Christian part of it?

[A CA Guy]

Too bad there aren't any conservative lawfirms who go after groups like this as well to bankrupt them.

Rep. John Hostettler, R-Ind., filed a measure to amend the Civil Rights Attorney's Fees Act of 1976, 42 U.S.C. Section 1988, to prohibit prevailing parties from being awarded attorneys fee in religious establishment cases, but not in other civil rights filings. If you want to corral the ACLU, then consider a letter or email to your Congressman urging them to cosponsor this legislation.
