[quote Black Landlord][quote shadow][quote SteveO]Church -- State -- I seem to remember something about those are separate. Something up there, ak, cobwebs!
So you are saying that speaking at a church and asking those present to join in prayer is the same as establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof (which, by the way, is all the Constitution has to say about "separation of church and state")?
What if a candidate asks God to make him an instrument of [God's] will?
Did you read the specific quotes? Scary stuff.
Which stuff do you think is scary? I find some of it silly, and a lot of it wrong, even from a biblical point of view, but I don't actually find it that scary. kj.
