No that makes you a facist! So basically what you are saying is non-christians should pay taxes but yet recieve no representation or protection from the government?? I'll bet if you asked William Bradford, John Smith, Myles Standish et al, that would be exactly the type of government they fled from to create the colonies. Well, let's ask them....

Thats fine but what you gave me were quotes from the founders of America, not the men and women who were part of the Mayflower compact or Jamestown settlement. I am not against faith, and surely not against christianity. But its diffcult for me to accept the fact that the GOVERNMENT should decide what religion is good or bad, true or untrue. Being a Roman Catholic, I know for a fact that there are christians of other demoninations who feel catholics are not really christians and that the catholic faith is not a religion but a cult. Thats their belief and thats fine, but I disagree with them. You cannot open public school to organized prayer during the school day, I have no problem with schools allowing christian clubs etc. to meet after school. But you are going to have to allow the other faiths to do the same. There is no way the Supreme Court will rule that prayer in school is OK, only for christians but not others. So if you open that door, be prepared to greet what or whom ever walks through it.
