Ah! On this we agree.

The separation of church and state wasn't so much to protect government, though that is a large part of it.

The separation was also to prevent religion from being infected by politics.

Like MAGA politics has infected Christianity here in America. Just like politics destroyed Christianity two centuries ago.


The unbelievers of Europe attack the Christians as their political opponents rather than as their religious adversaries; they hate the Christian religion as the opinion of a party much more than as an error of belief; and they reject the clergy less because they are the representatives of the Deity than because they are the allies of government.

In Europe, Christianity has been intimately united to the powers of the earth. Those powers are now in decay, and it is, as it were, buried under their ruins. The living body of religion has been bound down to the dead corpse of superannuated polity; cut but the bonds that restrain it, and it will rise once more. I do not know what could restore the Christian church of Europe to the energy of its earlier days; that power belongs to God alone; but it may be for human policy to leave to faith the full exercise of the strength which it still retains.

This is one of the reasons I quit my church a few years ago.

I am absolutely sickened by seeing so-called Christians supporting an openly brazen demonic force.

So you're judge and jury, and you decide who is a Christian and who it not, yet you try to call yourself one?

Just like conservatism, you haven't the first clue what Christianity is about, your church (if you ever actually attended one) is well rid of you. Good for them! lol

I pity you fools for being trapped inside a Fallacy of the Excluded Middle.

You idiots think because I am a Never Trumper, I am a liberal or a Democrat.

This, despite ALL of my posts telling you fools that Trump is leading YOU into the liberal cave.

Gee, why would I say that if I was pro-liberal or pro-Democrat?

I swear, your brains would break if you began using them for once.

Yeah, that's how an intelligent and reasonable person would talk to people he's trying to compel to a different viewpoint.

You're an arrogant ass who thinks everyone is wrong but you, not only that you're a liar, you're not a conservative or a Christian, that is plainly obvious by reading the drivel you post on here.

What do you mean by "pushing it in public schools?"

The complication for the SSM is that both sides have a legitmate argument. When that case first came up years ago I was instinctively on the side of a public business needs to serve the public. However, over time I thought of the religious aspect and a person may truly feel that doing some things goes against everything they know to be right, so they shouldn't be forced to do that.

However, like in the Civil Rights era, where Black families would have to travel miles and miles and miles before they could find a business willing to serve them or allow them to use the bathroom ect, just because of the bigotry and racism that the country en masse was caught up in, I have a bias to the SS couple.

It's complicated.

It's not complicated if you only treat actual public accommodations as public accommodations.

Not think anytime money changes hands it's a PA.
