Speech is about religious freedom throughout the world.

Thanking Ivanka and Franklin Graham.

In July he met with survivors of religious persecution at the White House. They are there at this summit.

Excellent speech!

These political elites who continue to categorize and criticize "baskets" (Hillary) of wonderful citizens who oppose their coercive ideology might consider the words of the man known as "the father of the Constitution" under which they have their employment:

Excerpt: "Because we hold it for a fundamental and undeniable truth, “that Religion or the duty which we owe to our Creator and the Manner of discharging it, can be directed only by reason and conviction, not by force or violence.”

"The Religion then of every man must be left to the conviction and conscience of every man; and it is the right of every man to exercise it as these may dictate. This right is in its nature an unalienable right. It is unalienable; because the opinions of men, depending only on the evidence contemplated by their own minds, cannot follow the dictates of other men: It is unalienable also; because what is here a right towards men, is a duty towards the Creator. It is the duty of every man to render to the Creator such homage, and such only, as he believes to be acceptable to him. This duty is precedent both in order of time and degree of obligation, to the claims of Civil Society. Before any man can be considered as a member of Civil Society, he must be considered as a subject of the Governor of the Universe: And if a member of Civil Society, who enters into any subordinate Association, must always do it with a reservation of his duty to the general authority; much more must every man who becomes a member of any particular Civil Society, do it with a saving of his allegiance to the Universal Sovereign. We maintain therefore that in matters of Religion, no man’s right is abridged by the institution of Civil Society, and that Religion is wholly exempt from its cognizance." - James Madison

Is there anywhere a clearer statement of the underlying principle of the U. S. Constitution's provisions and protections for "the People's" rights and liberties?

The very foundation of the Founders' Declaration of Independence from a "government-over-people" rule to one of a people's recognition of "overruling Providence" and "people-over-government" liberty was summarized in Jefferson's, "The God who gave us life, gave us liberty at the same time: the hand of force may destroy, but cannot disjoin them."

In our generation, do we not see that "hand of force" unmasked at the same time as that vicious ideology refuses to recognize Madison's "Creator," "the Governor of the Universe," and "Universal Sovereign," or Jefferson's "the God who gave us life," but those who have bought into it utilize the "hand of force" to deny public discourse to include those descriptions in its "politically-correct" discourse or their propagandizing of the youth of America?

Talking to the U.N. about religious freedom is like talking to Dracula about the benefits of sunbathing.

I’m sure none of those claps came from Arab nations. 11 Christians a day are killed by who I wonder? He mentions Turkey. Perhaps we should kick Turkey from NATO?

I never heard about “freedom of worship” until Obama. It used to be “freedom of religion”.

The old concept was freedom to live your religion with no government interference. Today the concept is freedom to “worship”. So I can gather in private or in a church and mumble whatever I want with a preacher.
But outside the church, we must all follow the dictates of the state atheism and perversion.

The hell with freedom of worship. I want freedom of religion, the freedom to follow my faith in and OUT of the churchhouse.

President Trump protecting religious freedom is a strong reason why he’s being attacked so viciously. Satan hates anyone who worships J.C. freely.
