their quote on the first amendment comes up short...”“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.”

leftists are fools.

We actually get the 1st Amendment wrong. Its provision is only applicable to the federal government (Congress). Additionally, Congress is not simply prohibited from passing a law establishing religion. Rather, it is prohibited from passing any law regarding the establishment of religion; i.e. it cannot pass a law establishing religion, nor one prohibiting the states from doing so. In other words, it takes the question of religion away from the federal government and reserves it to the states.

Good catch

They always pull that to brainwash the stupid

How many think it actually says “separation of church and state”?

It’s their typical trick just because someone else said that
