Marxism doesn't have a First Amendment. They only have crimes against the state for those who don't adhere to the party line.

Amendment I

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.





Anti-religion group threatens to ‘warn’ Auburn University after 200 kids baptized on campus: ‘Absolute joke’

quote:

An anti-religion group attempting to throw cold water on an Alabama university after the school’s football coach was filmed assisting with the baptism of a student has a "twisted interpretation of the First Amendment," a legal expert says.

On Friday, the Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF) sent a letter to Auburn University President Christopher Roberts warning that more than 200 student baptisms, one of which was assisted by Auburn Tigers head football coach Hugh Freeze, somehow violated the Constitution’s Establishment Clause.

"These ongoing and repeated constitutional violations at the University create a coercive environment that excludes those students who don’t subscribe to the Christian views being pushed onto players by their coaches," it states.

If the university organized it, yeah they shouldn’t have.

If a university employee organizes it, maybe.

If a non-university official organized it, go for it.

You'd be hard pressed to find a major university without a Baptist, Catholic, or Lutheran Student Union (or other name) with an official capacity as a student organization.

They are treated no differently than any other club on campus.

And "Freedom From Religion" my arse. You just worship yourselves.

It’s crazy how threatened some non-religious people seem to become when exposed to people of faith. What ever happened to shrugging your shoulders and moving on with your life?

We should all join together as tax payers and fund a lawsuit against this hate group for violating our rights to freedom of religion! We need a jury trial in Alabama.

You know the very first thing to immediately happen when Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist?

He was immediately tempted, coming under attack by the devil.



SO….. The devil in like manner coming after Auburn for the baptism of 200 souls is a no brainer. In fact, it’s to be expected.

If not??? What about 'if so'. Why would that not also be a non-story. It is freedom OF religion... not freedom FROM religion?
