Unsolicited Evangelicals

Below is snippets of a message I received. I am  not sure why someone would have the need to send something so provocative as well as being so intellectually dishonest. At the end of the message is what the constitution says on the matter, not anyone's particular opinion. The law.  I am glad we have something to prevent mob rule such as our constitution.

Fifty-two of the 55 founders of the Constitution were members of the established Orthodox churches in the colonies..

Thomas Jefferson worried that the Courts would overstep their authority and instead of Interpreting the law would begin making law an oligarchy the rule of few over many.


How then, have we gotten to the point that everything we have done for 220 years in this Country is now suddenly wrong and Unconstitutional?


Lets put it around the world and let the world see and remember what this great country was Built on

I was asked to send this on if I agreed or

Delete if I didn't. Now it is your turn. ..

It is said that 86% of Americans believe in God. Therefore, it is very hard to understand why there is such a mess about having the Ten Commandments on display or 'In God We Trust' on our money and having God in the Pledge of Allegiance.

Why don't we just tell the other 14% to Sit Down and SHUT UP!!!



If you agree, pass this on

The law disagrees. No bogus polls, just the law:


Otherwise known as the establishment clause in the First Amendment


Article [I.]


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.



and this little notion from the constitution

Article. VI.

Clause 3: The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.
