Culturally Christian. That is probably why John Adams said
Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.
John Adams
That is the question.
“Let’s ban the list of behaviors that underpin a civil society from our schooling system.”. That is their argument.
Don’t forget this, but Jesus Christ was a Jew.
As were the first Christians. As Jesus said to the Samaritan women, “salvation is of the Jews.”
In Galatians 5, Paul tells us we should love our neighbor as ourself.
He goes on to say we should not indulge the flesh. That is, sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like.
Rather, he encourages us to live in the spirit; love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
Whether we are Christian are not, we would all do well to follow this good advice from Paul.
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.
...but nowhere in the US Constitution do I see "freedom from religion" specified. Could you point it out to me?
2. I see the establishment of government schools decreed in the Communist Manifesto,...
Free Education for All Children in Public Schools. Abolition of Children's Factory Labor in it's Present Form. Combination of Education with Industrial Production.
...but nowhere do I see the establishment of government schools decreed in the US Constitution. Could you point it out to me?
btw, schools are a state issue. So my guess would be under the 10th.
I was right about not knowing what you were babbling about. I knew I shouldn’t have bothered with you. My fault.
So you can’t point me to presidential immunity. Thought so.
I thought you were responding to my actual comment.
Silly me.
I did. Schools are a states issue.
No purpose of action against religion can be imputed to any legislation, state, or national, because this is a religious people.
This is a Christian nation. What would lead the US Supreme Court to conclude that? America's history is the answer. The court's decision in that case was only 16 pages long, but in those 16 pages; the court provided almost 80 different historical precedents proving that America was indeed a Christian nation.
The court referenced the founding fathers, the acts of Congress and the state governments, previous court decisions, and many other official actions to reach its conclusion that America was indeed a Christian nation.
Interesting that the Democrat Party operative is all wee-wee’d up about presidential immunity - just like any Democrat Underground stalwart would be...
Just three of the educational organizations that keep whole libraries, not just a bookcase, documenting the overwhelming Biblicist Christian influence on and contributions to America’s founding and development are . . . .

What would be a hoot is for someone to ask this person “what would be your response if the Christians simply separated themselves from you? would that be okay?”
I am getting tired of ignorant atheists running their mouths off about Christianity and the Bible when it is obvious that they do not know what they are talking about.
