'No Separation Of Church And State': Trump's Religious Liberty Commission Reveals Its Priorities

[otto105]

There never was a separation of church and state.

Point to the constitution and it’s verse.

1) I’m a white woman? You’re losing it.

Or you are the biggest coon running.

2) nope, you are actually arguing much if his views…segregation.

Uh no, the members on the SC that are trying to destroy the very bills that help black folks have the same mindset he has.

3) voters

Not black voters, I know your coward ass can't admit that.

4) of course race has something to do with it, you demklaners racial gerrymadeeed to create black districts. It’s illegal to racially gwrrmander.

It is this racist SC that gave racist in the South the green light to racially gerrymander black disricts.

The kicker is you claim to be a black woman that is supporting racist weakening black folks voting power.

Which is vastly different than having the option to pray or see a nativity scene

You praying quietly by yourself is fine. A nativity scene is intrusion into the lives of non-believers.

A nativity scene has no meaning to an agnostic.

Unless they wanna throw it on the government wall

Congresswoman Charlotte!

Get used ti saying her name you little demklansman!

Your old white dick is going home!

Well it's not surprising, boot licker cheering for a boot licker. Do you just trick old white men or do you let it brutha hit sometimes Just curious because you love talking about all the dick you suck.

A nativity scene had no meaning to an agnostic.

What the agnostic thinks, not what you think. You are unimportant. Just pray quietly and leave others alone.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

Slavery was an occupation and Democrats truly appreciated it, then and now.

You mean white conservative cowards loved it, just like white conservative cowards do today.

Yes, I just spent five days in the Atlanta Metropolitan area, where my daughter is moving. She absolutely loved it for the diversity.

I like Atlanta, yes.

I know she was killed, but I thought one of her sons was also killed.

Seems like I recall people in the organization (felons, who'd guessed?) did the dirty dead. It was all over money.

She did produce a Baptist minister son, William. Her body was discovered in 2001.

The Supreme Court had prohibited officially sponsored prayer in schools in Engel v. Vitale (1962) on similar grounds. After she founded the American Atheists and won Murray v. Curlett, she achieved attention to the extent that in 1964, Life magazine referred to her as "the most hated woman in America".<a href="Madalyn Murray O'Hair - Wikipedia"><span>[</span>2<span>]</span></a><a href="Madalyn Murray O'Hair - Wikipedia"><span>[</span>3<span>]</span></a> Through American Atheists, O'Hair filed numerous other suits on issues of separation of church and state.

In 1995, O'Hair, her son Garth, and her granddaughter Robin disappeared from Austin, Texas. Initial speculation suggested the trio had absconded with hundreds of thousands of dollars from American Atheists coffers; in fact, the trio had been murdered by their former associates, and the bodies were not found until 2001.<a href="Madalyn Murray O'Hair - Wikipedia"><span>[</span></a>

Whites are very diverse there.

There never was a separation of church and state.

There is no 'Church of America' in our constitution but, there is freedom of religion. State representatives are free to worship as they choose. There are multiple places of worship in D.C. There are Christian churches and cathedrals, Jewish congregations & synagogues, Mosques & Islamic centers, Buddhist & Eastern Religious sites and even Ethiopian Orthodox.

Government is not forcing you nor prohibiting you. Viewing any written word or display is optional viewing. Your (gasp) responsibility

It's a clear establishment of an abrahamic religious holy book.

 

[konradv]

Actually the opposite is true, you made the claim


Not me

I didn’t make a claim. I cited historical precedent. You’re making the claim that the Founders didn’t understand the document they wrote.

 

[g5000]

There never was a separation of church and state.

What an ignorant thing to say.

 

[rightwinger]

And on the flip side, not allowing these things would be against practicing religion freely.

Not at all

You or I are free to display them
The state is not

 

[konradv]

When you provide some, I'll do the same.

You have provided zero.

I can, at least point to history which I can pull in once you've done a little homework (being the lazy left winger you are...we'll see).

I don’t have to. You’re making a claim that historical precedent is invalid. That’s a high bar to meet and I’m not helping you.

‘One member calls for a Presidential Medal of Freedom for a baker who refused to create a wedding cake for a same-sex couple.

Listen, man.

If you have cheated on two wives, and want to marry a third time, a bible-compliant bakery will make you all the wedding cakes you desire!

But those homos are absolutely destroying the institution of marriage, man!

On a serious note, I seriously doubt any of the MAGA cult have ever cracked open a bible.

Jesus never said a word about homosexuals, but he had a LOT to say about hypocrites. More than any other group of people.

Sometimes I can't help but wonder how many redactions there are in Trump's "Patriot Bible".

You’ve cited no case law, I’ve asked

You’ve not delivered

The U.S. is based on Judeo/Christian morals and values. There is no 'Church of America.'
