Freedom of religion is considered stealing culture?
Wait if religion and government is severed why does it say on money in God we trust??
Many people think “religion” should be equated with “theism”.
Please allow me to suggest a more inclusive definition of religion — “the sum of those beliefs, practices and prohibitions that pertain to a person’s concept of the highest powers of the universe”.
For you more advanced students: What is the antecedent of the word “thereof” in the first amendment? When you think you know, try reading that clause but replacing the word “thereof” with whatever word you thought was the antecedent.
Okay..
RELIGION IS THE MASTER PIECE OF THE ART OF ANIMAL TRANING. FOR IT TRAIN PPL AZ TO HOW THEY SHALL THINK FACTS OVA FEELINGS! LIONS TIGERS AND BEARS OH MY!
Only two of the Ten Commandments are replicated in US law, in respect to killing & stealing. Enforcing the first commandment (You shall have no other Gods.….) would actually be unconstitutional under the first amendment, & America’s whole system of consumer capitalism is based on coveting your neighbours stuff..
One MAJOR failing here is that the founders said freedom of religion AND freedom FROM religion. Oops! Looks like you forgot that!
Anyone here in 2022? Lol, it’s like this video was made for this
Separation of church and state was never about protecting peoples right to worship. It was, and has always been, about protecting peoples right NOT to worship.
Religion will not limit itself so that the liberty of others will be secure…
The reality is most people believe that some religions are more free than others.
It’s infuriating
Thank you. Never change.
Nope FASE
Yeah yeah yeah,so why in the court room they make you swear on a Christian bible?why when a President get into office they take the oath with their right hand on a Christian bible?
One of my poems i say I THOUGHT IT WAS A THING SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE BUT I VOTE IN A CHURCH EVERY ELECTION DAY!! AMERICA is funny.
“many if not most colonists came to the new world seeking religious tolerance and freedom” meening: puritism is what we want and no interference. All that European freedom and tolerance is wrong.

IGreat presentation,.…..In this video you do not mention that freedom of religion also means that atheist and agnostics are protected when they do not participate in any religion and do not believe in any divine entities , Gracias.
Ironically, the UK has more rights and is more secular now, just without the shootings.
Freedom of religion
Fresh.
None , if you’re not an evangelical Christian, you don’t exist. And if you are ‚you have been tricked into tss Rex king isreal got the European bankers snd enslaving yourselves to debt , of their mystical money
The Freedom From Religion Foundation cult wants to take away this beloved right, and turn America into an atheist dictatorship.
I hereby obtain and exercise my Constitutional Right to worship my faith. The question you are going to ask is what does that all involve? Let’s just say the practice of sacrifice that you all follow will hold up in a court of law! I know that makes you very angry, but THAT’S THE LAW
I’m a little curious about why this doesn’t speak about the Clarke brothers in Rhode Island having to do so much work to be able to try to get a few protectionary bits on freedom from the government in regards to basic spiritual practices into the constitution. It also says nothing of how being forced to participate in mass violence, like wars, violated/es this provision? Taxes should not be allocated for things that violate citizens’ religious lives. I guess this post chooses quickness of time over efficiency of verbiage? More of the same. Whatever.
Freedom of religion was bit really revolutionary back then, it was imported from the de facto constitution of The Republic of the United Netherlands.
😊
Separation of church and state go back even before ‚Jefferson used the phrase ” a wall between church and state” but he was barrowing from Roger Williams the founder of Rhoads Island, Williams would say “a hedge or fence ” This show that the Idea was new in America and Jefferson’s statement has no weight to it is bull and he and Washington and other founders stated it in many other ways. The Conservatives have essentially said that we have freedom of religion so if my religion says your view does not matter and we are going to force you to submit to us to be cause that is our religion and you can’t stop us,because that would violate our freedom of religion. A real perverted view of religious freedom.
Freedom of religion; Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.
Or prohibiting the free exercise thereof .
This
Keeps people from being forced to do something and let’s people do religion if they want to do it .
there is no such thing as religion.
The fact our country doesn’t force religion on you still doesn’t change the fact the the God of the Bible is real and those who don’t come to realize that, repent and turn from there sins will be in for a very bad ending. Our counties laws doesn’t change the truth.
Now we got Jews, Muslims, and every religion
Human imagination should always be protected.😇
James Madison once said in one of his letters that ‘Religion and government will both exist in greater purity the less they are mixed together.’ He is the man who basically wrote the Bill Of Rights so his opinion on this matter is kinda a big deal.
so how do we have christian schools
It’s separation of religion not from
The lying cowards of Christ don’t want their treason exposed which is why they shadow ban all comments containing the name of a government agency that was meant to protect us from these vermin of a false God who are intent on committing treason so that they can steal a nation and turn it back into a slave colony for their masters.
Because they are worthless cowards who will believe whatever they are told to believe by those stronger than they.
