Thread Name: BS: Religious beliefs - no standing in law
Subject: RE: BS: Religious beliefs - no standing in law
The Separation is one of the hallmarks of American democracy.

It is being undermined by certain Christians who want their version of Sharia Law.
Palin, Rand Paul, Robertson and others are culpable. These beliefs have no legal standing
based on what we know historically about the American Constitution created by Deists
who were wary of religious zealots who would attempt to take over our country.

We are not yet a theocracy but there are those who are attempting to change this.

The right to "believe" is legal. The supplanting of religious ideas for the purpose of
subverting the law is not.

Churches are legal but not in government decisions.
