All they meant is that Congress could not pass a law that tells you your now a Baptist, or Lutheran, or whatever. That's it, nothing more. And it certainly was never intended to prevent children from praying in school or having a copy of the 10 commandments in a court room. It was never intended to be what progressives have warped it into today.


False.

James Madison

"[T]he appropriation of funds of the United States for the use and support of religious societies, [is] contrary to the article of the Constitution which declares that ‘Congress shall make no law respecting a religious establishment.’"


quote:

Thomas Jefferson

"I contemplate with soveriegn reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should ‘make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,’ thus building a wall of separation between church and State."
