What war has the US gone to in the name of religion as you also insinuated?
Forgive me, it's not an actual war as no war was ever declared but the last I checked “terrorism” in the name of Allah or Islam was not a country and what have our leaders taken us to war against? Terrorism. Terrorism knows no boundaries. Do you agree? So how can our soldiers fight to win when there are no boundaries to fight within and when the enemy is allowed to operate within our confines of our military both at home and abroad?
This whole war on terror is just as RP says it is, it is a hoax to drain the bank accounts of hard working Americans, period. If it was for any other reason, our borders would have been secured 1st and foremost before one soldier set foot on foreign soil. It's time Americans wake up and take the blinders off. Man will never and can never bring peace to the middle east because the fighting over there has never been about land but about religion. If it was about land, Israel as we write would not be set to demolish an entire town(settlement) within the borders of Israel. Homes of faithful & loving Jews AND all in the name of religious peace aka submissive political correctness.
your assertion of the non existent separation of Church and State
HELLO! Are not churches today subject to the IRS? That is the separation the Constitution calls for because when a church succumbs to the govt, the govt has the authority to either let that church remain open or close it down depending on what the church is teaching and preaching. It also gives the govt the right to decide what is a church and what is not thus the ever growing persecution of those that gather in homes for bible study, being shut down because the govt deems that gathering as a church.
The Jews of all people know the results of such actions of govt coming in, taking their Scriptures and burning them and forcing them to follow whatever religion the govt deems appropriate. So we now have the govt deciding what is a church and what is not. A govt deciding what is a religion and what is not and you have to ask about separation of church and state?
America was founded because of religious persecution, the United States was founded because of govt persecution. Now that the two have met, the ride is in mach speed. What part of that do you not understand?
