Right.

We have a long history in this country of the self-described
religious
attacking/isolating/discriminating against those whose
beliefs
differ
from theirs, a history that began long before anyone
noticed we
have
Muslims here.

Such religious bigotry is as American as apple pie.

What is the difference between those who have a religious
axe to
grind
and those with a political axe to grind.

Exactly! When the Ayatollah Santorum has his way, we'll be a
theocracy
just like that.

Do you want to be a Catholic theocracy or a Muslim theocracy?

Neither. And neither did our founding fathers.

Read the declaration of independence again. We were founded
with an
acknowledgment of God's grace and that everyone could practice
their
religion without interference by others. Contrary to popular
belief
there is not separation of church and state.


snerk



Yeah, we know the constitution is a joke to you.. We get it..


No, silly...I'm giggling at the Santorumism, that we live in a
theocracy...and there *is* separation of church and state.

What does the 1st amendment state? I'll help you and post it here for
you.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or
prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of
speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to
assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.




Hehehe.

So, we do have spoken aloud group prayer each morning in the public
schools, eh?

If we did, it would be "establishment" of religion.

Sorry, you lose. Again.

*You* can exercise your religion. Your public school system cannot.

Do you understand the difference?



Facts are facts. Weather you believe in Religion or not, the law says
you can't tell me how to celebrate my faith,

No one is telling you you cannot pray in a public school. Go right
ahead, as an individual.


You are telling me I have to provide services that are against my
religion and conscience. And don't tell me "the insurance company pays".
You and I, and everyone else knows the insurance company will take that
into consideration when putting together the package for the religious
employer, and charge them more for the group plan, based on the
anticipation of more services, which is of course how insurance
companies work...


Lots of us pay taxes that go for "services" that are against our
conscience. That's the way it is in a complex society. No one is forcing
you or yours to use contraception or get an abortion.
