Ok, let's repeal all laws and let people do what they want because you don't want "big government".

We are a Christian country, we need to pass laws that reflect that.

Man, I thought this was a conservative forum. some of you guys sound like appeazers to me

John Adams (the second President of the United States)


Adams signed the Treaty of Tripoli (June 7, 1797). Article 11 states:
“The government of the United States is not in any sense founded on the Christian religion.”

At the state level, I have absolutely no problem with passing laws based on morality. The Founders originally left enough room in the Constitution for just that, hence all the old, but good, morality laws at the state level. But at the national level? No power under the Constitution and not intended.

And no I'm not an 'American', I'm a North Carolinian
