HOW COULD ALL 50 STATES BE WRONG

Somewhere along the way, the Federal Courts and the Supreme Court have misinterpreted the U.S. Constitution. How could fifty States be wrong?

THIS IS VERY INTERESTING! America's founders did not intend for there to be a separation of God and state, as shown by the fact that all 50 states acknowledge God in their state constitutions: You will notice that the most commonly used reference is “ALMIGHT GOD.”

After reviewing acknowledgments of God from all 50 state constitutions, one is faced with the prospect that maybe, just maybe, the ACLU and the out-of-control federal courts are wrong!

We are letting a few change America. The problem is so many Christians are so busy. Making money and having fun ... We are leaving it for someone else to take care of.

The Amazing First Amendment.

"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" First Amendment to The United States Constitution.

What I find amazing about The First Amendment is that when the U. S. Supreme Court applies the First Amendment to issues that deal with "religion" it's called "the establishment clause"; but when applied to "the press" it's called "the protection clause". Amazing!!! As far as I'm concerned it's nothing more than a double standard! And a rewriting of history by The Supreme Court!

According to our Supreme Court, "the establishment clause"; of the First Amendment calls for a "separation of Church and State". But you will not find the phrase "separation of Church and State" any where in the First Amendment, or The Constitution, or The Declaration of Independence, or anywhere else in our founding documents!

Let me ask you a question: If YOU were the President of The United States ... and someone wrote you a letter... and in that letter they asked you a question... and YOU wrote back giving them an answer to the question ... Would YOU want that answer to become "the law of the land"? Should a part of a private correspondence (a letter) become "the law of the land"? Well that's exactly how "the separation of Church and State" became the law of the land".

The phrase "separation of church and state" comes from a letter written by Thomas Jefferson on January 1, 1802. This was not a government document or public policy paper, but a personal, private letter. Jefferson's letter was written in response to an earlier letter from the Danbury Baptist Church. In that letter, written November 7, 1801, the Danbury Baptists voiced to President Jefferson their concerns about the First Amendment: Thomas Jefferson's letter to the Danbury Baptist Church.

The Great Wall???

"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" - The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution

First of all, many of the men who drafted the Constitution were Christians, and the rest at least lived lives based on Christian presuppositions and biblical principles. Their main concern with the First Amendment clause was in preventing the federal government from establishing a national church and, in conjunction therewith, protecting their own state-established churches or state-preferred Christian denominations. At the time of the ratification of the First Amendment in 1791, over one-third of the thirteen colonies had established churches, which fact meant that many of the states were supporting a single church or religion.

The First Amendment states that "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof." The word "Congress" has from the beginning been interpreted to mean the federal government. "Respecting" is literally defined as "having anything to do with." And "establishment" has historically meant "government support of a single church or government preference of one Christian creed or denomination over another." Therefore, modernizing the language of the First Amendment, it would read like this today, "The federal government shall make no law having anything to do with supporting a single church, or prohibiting the free exercise of religion by the states." As you can very well see, if this amendment is not viewed in its historical context, then it can become distorted. that is exactly the error committed by the Supreme Court in its interpretation of the First Amendment.

In the last thirty years the Supreme Court has turned their backs to almost 150 years of previous Supreme Court decisions...Here is a brief summary:
In 1892 the United States Supreme Court made an exhaustive study of the supposed connection between Christianity and the government of the United States. After reviewing hundreds of volumes of historical documents, the Supreme Court asserted, "These references...add a volume of unoffical declarations to the mass of organic utterences that this is a religious people...a Christian nation." Likewise, in 1931 Supreme Court Justice George Sutherland reviewed the 1892 decision in reference to another case and reiterated that Americans are a "Christian people." And in 1952 Justice William O. Douglas affirmed that "we are a religious people and our institutions presuppose a Supreme Being"."

Finally,

This so-called "wall of separation" is also movable! And is used at will to suppress not only our rights to "free exercise" of religion; but also (if your a Christian) the freedom of speech, and the right of the people peaceably to assemble. Here is a good example of what I'm talking about: You Could Be Arrested for praying in our nation's Capitol!

The entire First Amendment to The Constitution is suppose to be "the protection clause"! But our Supreme Court has used the old "divide and conquer" tactic (establishment / protection) to chip away at our God-given rights! One of the latest attacks on "free speech" and the right "peaceably to assemble" are called "fixed buffer zones,"
