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

[HikerGuy83]

So they are the ones that actually wrote it, yet they didn't understand what they themselves had written?

His comments are almost as ignorant as konradv, the dick.

Madison didn't want a federal religion. He had little to say about state religions. He did author a piece that pined for so-called religious freedom but never did much about it as the colonies were pretty deep in religion.

Why do you keep lying?

He isn't going against precedent.

The 62 cases did. Just like Roe. That's what you get when your democratic president nominates members of the KKK to the SCOTUS.

Idiot cases where the judges kiss the presidents ass.

Early in his life, Black espoused anti-Catholic views and was a member of the Ku Klux Klan. An article from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported that he temporarily resigned from the Klan in 1925 to bolster his senatorial campaign, before quietly rejoining in 1926. In 1937, upon being appointed to the Supreme Court, Black said: "Before becoming a Senator I dropped the Klan. I have had nothing to do with it since that time. I abandoned it. I completely discontinued any association with the organization."

You bet Hugo. You were a racist then and still were when you were on the court.

And you didn't know **** about the constitution.

You’re in the wrong forum. This is Current Events, not History.

You’re in the wrong forum. This is Current Events, not History.

You are the one claiming hundreds of years of court rulings.

But you don't have them because they don't exist for your claims

Then you keep saying people are going against precedent.

You lie so much you can't tell if you are coming or going.

Must suck to be such an ignorant dumbass.

We just showed you some current events that show that things are moving back towards the original intent of the Constitution.

You won't comment on them because they paint you as the SFB that you are.

You’re in the wrong forum. This is Current Events, not History.

You are the one in the wrong forum.

The forum for dumbassed left wingers is in the ladies room.

Why don't you head that way and let the adults have a good discussion (unhampered by your ultra stupidity).

If a group of Christians finds community support to post the ten commandments how can that be said that the government is posting the ten commandments?

You can't post them in public buildings as that is seen as an endorsement.

A conservative view and one I can endorse.

For instance, in Catholic Charities Bureau v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry,2,3 Catholic Charities Bureau was discriminated against for “not being religious enough” to meet the requirements for a tax exemption, to which the Supreme Court responded, “[T]he government should not entangle itself in second-guessing the religiosity of a faith-based organization’s activities.”4 Another instance of government infringement on church autonomy is the ongoing case Union Gospel Mission of Yakima v. Ferguson, in which a Christian non-profit shelter is challenging Washington state's anti-discrimination law that restricts the religious organization’s right to decline employment to individuals who do not align with its beliefs regarding sexual orientation, a right protected by the establishment clause.5,6 Similarly, in Foothills Christian Church et al v. Johnson et al, a group of California churches is appealing the dismissal of their challenge to a state law that requires religious preschools to allow children to opt out of religious services, arguing it violates their right to self-govern their religious institution.7,8 Finally, Yeshiva University, an Orthodox Jewish school, was sued for denying recognition to a student Pride Alliance group. In response, New York courts refused to recognize the school as a religious institution,9 yet another illustration of the state undermining a religious organization’s autonomy.

If the majority of a community wants to post the ten commandments and the government allows it that is not an endorsement but an acknowledgment that government shall not restrict the free exercise of religion.

And in most cases I would agree.

Seems like it should not be an argument.

But you always have some loser athiest who is an attention whore needing their name in the paper.

And courts oblige....for now.

I'm not sure if I find it funny or sad the amount of name calling by those who say they are promoting putting official prayer in schools.

Biden appointed a token to be his running mate and we see how that turned out.

A token who had much more experience than this mess we have in the WH today.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

Courts are racist if they say carveout privileges based on skin color are racist? Sounds like a black position seeking unfair advantages over whites.

Right, because all the districts should be white, but that is not based on race and that doesn't give whites an unfair advantage, especially racist republicans.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

Republicans did not murder hundreds of thousands of Americans in a failed attempt to keep slaves. Democrats did.

Rewriting history again.

Pro-life folks are often pro-gun. How that works is indeed a mystery.

/—-/ Well, you libtard moonbats are easily confused.

Because they are using govt property to display religion
