I ain't cutting nobody no slack when it comes to God's authority over his religion.

Giving authority over and acknowledging it are two different things. Nobody wants laws that mandate religion, but you seem to take the extreme position that any acknowledgement is somehow coercion. Besides, coming from someone who comes across as an atheist or at the least extremely legalistic, I don't put a lot of sincerity in your concern about protecting religion. You pretent to want to protect religion, but what you advocate is taking any hint of religion out of the public forum.

You call people 'non-Christian' at the drop of the hat, but nothing indicates you believe in Jesus as the Messiah. You apparently worship at the alter of your legalistic views.

Please explain for me the difference between an acknowledgment and a mandate and provide examples of what you believe are permissible acknowledgments; and tell me why the government should be forbidden to use the sword yet allowed to use the pen?.
