Thomas Jefferson state in a letter to the Danbury, Conn. Baptists. He said:.......
.... “Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between man and his God, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legislative powers of government reach actions only and not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should `make no law respecting an establishment of religion, OR prohibiting the free exercise thereof.”
In other words we are free to practice one’s religion or exercise one’s beliefs ‘without intervention’ by the government and to be free of the exercise of authority ‘by a church through the government’.....
AMEN!!!!!!!.... oh such common sense our ForeFathers had!!!
