Our founding fathers believed in the rule of law. None of them thought that you could do whatever you wanted to and then blame it on your religion. None of them!

BTW, when you get a little deeper into all this, you're going to learn that the 1st Amendment was not part of our original Constitution. In fact, you're going to learn that that's why the call it an "amendment." ;-)

Interesting choice of words ... "blame it on your religion."

You have a reference for your claim? Where exactly did the Founding Fathers say that an individual is only permitted to practice and live out their faith only in their homes and churches?

Freedom of Religion is the reason our Founding Fathers left England. The MAIN reason.

Gee, I don't think I learned that in high school civics class 40 years ago ... ROFL!!

Tell me where your point is valid, here's the First Amendment:

First Amendment:Religion and Expression. Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

You do realize that it is in fact the US Supreme Court which acted with wanton disregard for the First Amendment while at the same time making it so there is no redress for grievances, correct?
