Wow are you joking me???? First Amendment states:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
The establishment clause prohibits the government from passing legislation to establish an official religion or preferring one religion over another. Also known as "separation of church and state".
If you ever go to Phila, please... please... please... go to the new Constitution center and educate yourself. Serious...
The problem is lots of people think(?) the "free expression"
of religion is the same as "establishing" it!
Soon, exchanging marriage vows with the opposite sex
will be seen as discriminatory "anti-same sex marriage language" and therefore banned (if you follow the same type of idiotic logic)
Right. How is teaching religion in school the same as congress passing a law?
You might as well say that the constitution guarantees a right to privacy and therefore abortion has to be legal. I'll bet that's exactly what you believe. Are you sure you're in the right forum?
There is no constituional reason local school boards can't teach what they want. Where is in written in the Constitution that the federal government is in charge of local education? If communities want to have religion classes and no one there complains, what business is it of the federal government?
It was never known to have that meaning until 1947 when FDR's communist stacked court ruled that athiesm was the State's official religion.
Yeah, right.
The crier says, "God save the United States and this honorable court."
