WonderNerdDD Posted May 17, 2022 Report Posted May 17, 2022 Because I follow and support Americans United for Separation of Church and State ( AU.org )I became aware of a huge threat both to religion in the USA and the country itself. It's called Christian Nationalism. Here is a Wikipedia article about it. https://tinyurl.com/ynzyz9aa They are a well organized and well funded part of the GOP. They are working to make the USA a church-state. Here is an article about how big a threat they are to religious freedom. https://tinyurl.com/yzv5zez6 So give that a read and give then give Americans United a follow to stay updated. Also, You can follow Constitutional Lawyer/Author/AU Boardmember Andrew Seidel on Twitter. He is an excellent source of knowledge on this topic. His book on the subject is available here https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-founding-myth-andrew-l-seidel/1129710712 Quote
Infidel Dog Posted May 18, 2022 Report Posted May 18, 2022 Prog logic. A term for a non-issue is inflated to encompass all of Christianity and from there we leap to a claim that the huge threat to religious freedom is religious freedom. Like I said, Prog logic. Quote
French Patriot Posted June 8, 2022 Report Posted June 8, 2022 There is no freedom of religion in the U.S., given that religions are state licenced and controlled. Christians, for instance, are not allowed to not bake wedding cakes for gays, if the baker happens to hate gays. Religions answer to the state, like all corporate citizens. There is a superficial freedom of religion for accepted religions but not for state rejected religions. It would be nice to rid ourselves of the fascist and slave wanting religions, but Christianity and Islam are entrenched. Regards DL Quote

Let any Christian cult or any other citizen try to stone a fornicator or unruly child, as recommended in scriptures, and see whose land and laws will be imposed. BTW, your constitution sucks as compared to mine in Canada. Our has us murder way fewer kids, thanks to not having the stupid gun wording in our better laws. Regards DL 1 1 Quote

Because if we don't threaten it, it will threaten us. This is what some of the Founding Fathers have said on the matter. 1 Quote
