Try and understand this concept. Once you allow one religion to become involved in the affairs of government, you have violated the 1st amendment. Why? Because Government would then be sponsoring a particular religion.

Where do you see that in the US Constitution?

The USA is a Christian, God fearing nation, or at least it was. And it is my prayer and I will do all in my power to see that it is once again. And if that means disagreeing with you, well so be it for the Apsotle Paul has made it abundantly clear that I and those that oppose Christ and His teachings have nothing in common anyhow.(2 Corinthians 6:14)

Read my post again if you did not understand. You cannot have a particular religion take control of government without having government support of that particular religion. What's so difficult to understand about that?

The first amendment does not prohibit a person of any religious faith from holding office..it just means that people cannot use government to mandate their faith...ie Christian prayer in government schools and the mandatory display of the 10 commandments.

I'm sorry... But not everyone in America is Christian... And not everyone in America believes in, or for that matter, fears God.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;....

Thanks to our Founding Fathers and the Bill of Rights, Americans have the right and freedom to practice whatever religion they want... Christian or not.

You stated that you would do everything in your power to see America become a Christian, God fearing nation once again.

What about those that aren't God fearing and Christian? Are you going to allow them to practice their religion? Are you going to kick them out of the country and alter the Bill of Rights to read:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion other than Christianity, or prohibiting the free exercise of Christianity....

I will add this: I do NOT agree with the people that bitch and scream every time someone prays at a football game, or has the ten commandments hanging on their wall at work. I think that THAT is unconstitutional because that would be, "prohibiting the free exercise thereof". However... to say that the USA is a God fearing Christian nation, would be incorrect. Americans are from a wide variety of religions. Obviously... the most being Christian. But that does not make us a Christian country.
