@Dooger1026 Yeah, those words were never in there. They were from a letter written to Baptists in Danbury, CT. The writer expressed a "reverence" for the 1st amendment. He believed that government was not to interfere with religion. What was his name again...hm...seems like he was connected with government somehow.

Great answer!

funky, no offense, but that is the comment of a simpleton or a hard line cynic. Inherently, they are only the same in as much as they offer a framework whereby people can live their lives. A society in which they become the same is in trouble.

Yes, religion should not be politicized. But politics needs God.

hasnt anyone heard of the separation of church and state? religion is the downfall of humanity. its the reason were at war. nothing good has ever come from religion. if there is some type of heaven as long as you follow the golden rule youll be there. i dont think puting money in a collection tray and having wierd cult-like rituals makes you a good person. just respect everyone and dont worry about the afterlife. we need to focus more on our future and our kids future
@shtizzle You do not know The Constitution very well. No where in The Constitution are the words "seperation of church and state." This has only become an accepted theme since the 1940's (47 I think), when Progressives created the concept through judicial law making instead of "original intent" interpreting, which is their job. The original intent of the 1st Amendment was not to seperate church from government but to keep government from imposing a specific religion upon society, Learn history!
