Can you explain to me why the Founders spent so much time making sure that there was a separation of church and state when you all claim that they were, basically, writing for God?

Maybe we should pass a law that makes sniping illegal. If we write it into law, these bad men can't do it anymore.

Howlin, they all ratified the Declaration of Independence with the words "granted by the creator" for a reason. That reason was to make clear that all men have natural rights and government was to protect those rights, not create or abrogate them.

I could type slower, but I know that wouldn't help and you're just toying with me.

You know well the meanings and intents. The Founders weren't speechwriters for God. They also didn't want a state church like the English Anglican church.

Try butter with the foot. It'll make it go down easier...

Such proud ignorance on display.
