Penny For Your Thoughts
Well, hello all. I'm planning to write an essay on the meaning of 'Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..' and how that statement is being used in our world. But, I need some help. I want to hear what YOU think on this subject. What do you think '...respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof...' means? Is this passage from the Bill of Rights being abused or not? Leave a comment or PM me. I'd love to hear your thoughts.
P.S. Scroll down and read the post below. It's a very good poem that was forwarded to me in an email.

View of Striker I say they're abusing that law. They're 'prohibiting' Christianity and 'respecting' other religions like Evolution and everything that poem on your other entry says (I liked it, by the way). And I think it's pretty sad that they do that.

View of Lady of Imladris Right. I would think that prohibiting churches to display anything relating to Christianity outside would count as "restriction of religion." Good post! Are you going to post the essay when you're done?
