If you are blind to the effects some people are concerned about, then no answer will be suitable for you. You are strong on the separation of church and state (SOCAS)? I now understand the source of your reasoning. SOCAS is not in the Constitution. What are you doing on Free Republic? That view of is EXREMELY liberal! I also see that you are new to Free Republic you have been here since Jan 9, 2014. Free Republic is a conservative chat room. Try Huffington Post, Im sure you will find like minded people there. Good bye and good luck!
Hey now, I may be new, but believe me I’m aware of the politics of this site! I’m a Libertarian, and there’s a lot here I agree with, but not all. Is that not alright? Is healthy, respectful debate not allowed? Do I need to list the things I agree with in order to pass muster? I’ve said nothing abusive, insulting or trollish. if it would help, I’ll start commenting on other threads that show my support. Those are easy, however. It’s where the disagreement lie that I think learning happens.
There are, after all, lots of things not in the Constitution that affect us, that we have opinions about, etc. And this debate, call it what you will, is about SOCAS...the desire for those to express their religious views without interference from the state, yes?
