The freedom to practice a religion does NOT conflate to the United States being founded AS a religious nation. It’s not the Christian equivalent of the Islamic Iran. Anyone who thinks so doesn’t get it. If the founders intended this to BE a ‘religious” nation they would have enshrined a particular religion as the state religion in the constitution. They expressly prohibited any established religion. It’s today’s religious conservatives who are expressly trying to enshrine their religious beliefs into public policy. Which is exactly what the founders forbade in the constitution.
What they wrote merely forbids the federal government from getting involved in the question at all, besides, who is imposing religion on you, this is politics and law.
The founders did not tolerate homosexuality, do you think that they would have spoken to a homosexual political group?
Do you think that any political party in existence then would have allowed a homosexual activist group within it?
That’s not what I said. You said America was founded upon individual freedom. It was founded upon freedom of religion.
