"...True religion and good morals are the only solid foundations of public liberty and happiness..."
-Continental Congress, 1778


Since 1993, the President has annually proclaimed January 16 "Religious
Freedom Day" This commemoration marks the passage on January 16, 1786, of a
significant document authored by Thomas Jefferson: the Virginia Statute for
Religious Freedom. The 2009 proclamation by President Bush encourages all
Americans to "reflect on the great blessing of religious liberty" and
"endeavor to preserve this freedom for future generations"

  • Religious freedom necessarily means that it should have no say on how the state is run nor on the content of any law (no say whatever). If religion does have a say it removes the religious freedom of adherents to other religions. It must also necessarily include the right to be free from religion, for the reason above and to allow those of no religion to be free of its effects. I submit that no religion (as a whole) actually believes in religious freedom for vividly apparent reasons.

  • Gasp! The religious and moral beliefs they believe are eerily similar to the ones that our country is founded on.

  • Nice spell check.
