Question about the founding fathers

[AUTaxMan]

Using that same logic you cannot prohibit a budhist who is a legal US citizen from placing a statue of Buddah infront of his state, local or federal gov't office nor can any prohibit his legal right to practice buddhism in the united states.

Precisely.

That line is taken out of context. Read the article I posted above.

Like I said in the other thread, the Supreme Court sees things differently. Take it up with them.

We all know the Supreme Court sees things differently. That's not an argument. The issue is whether the supreme court is right or wrong in interpreting it the way they do.

I read it the way the Supreme Court does, frankly.

Wrong according to who? The people who their decisions are not convenient for them?

It is absolute fallacy to say that Prayer cannot be allowed in schools because of "separation of Church and State". That is the lame unConstitutional argument used by atheists time and time again. Why do they not cry out about sharia law in our schools and our government? Why are mooslims allowed to advance islam throughout our government, but not Christians allowed to advance Christianity?

Because islam is tyranny. islam actually means, submission. Leftist ideology follows the same path, however, it is the classic tale of the scorpion and the frog. Once islam uses atheism/aclu/leftism to advance islam, they will execute leftists like they will Christians.

islam executes homosexuals, but you don't see leftists cry out about that.
islam enslaves and beats women, but you don't see the left cry about that
islam allows the rape of children, but you don't see the left cry about that.
islam executes anyone that does not bow to islam, but you don't see the left cry about that.
islam punishes education outside of their strict interpretation of everything, but you don't see the left cry about that.

Do I need to go on? And you can say all you want about "WASPS founding this country", but listen to this:

The Rothschilds were the one's who financed George Washington's army at Valley Forge. Without the backing of rich Jewish European families, Washington would not have had the ammunition, arms, food, clothing, etc. to attack and defeat the British. Food for thought when you're trying to deride our founding documents because "WASPS founded this country".

The question is, was it not generaly fair skinned Europeans that founded this country. I have never seen or heard of Muslims, Buddist or others being part of the founding fathers group. There were obviously Jews, who have mostly co-existed with Christians on a friendly basis throughout the years. Could the founding fathers ever imagined the world we live in today?

By the way jessejordan419, I am on your side.

No, people who are interested in original intent.

[mrveggieman]

No, people who are interested in original intent.

I believe that their original intent was for everyone to be able to peacefully practice his/her chosen religion free of outside interence. Since none of them are around today to confirm if that was indeed their intent, the only avenue available to us is for the SCOTUS the make their best educated guess on the matter.

No, there are many of their writings from which original intent may be learned.
