First Amendment:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof....

@FearlessFly Government "establishment" of religion includes government funding of religion, and any other kind of government endorsement of religion.

I look forward to the day when we remove "In god we trust" from the currency and government buildings. It is a horrible motto that pleases only the religious.

@BestWithoutGods . . . hmmm, SCOTUS does NOT agree with your opinions

@FearlessFly SCOTUS needs to rethink this topic and decide correctly in favor of the First Amendment.

@BestWithoutGods . . . that's YOUR opinion.
"The US Constitution requires it"
Perhaps it's better not to make outlandish claims without evidence !

. . . btw, in the book (a very good read) :
[goodreads.com]

. . . there is mention of ~39 'drafts' for amendments, twelve were actually submitted. Which two were NOT adopted ? That's right, the first and second !

@FearlessFly [mtsu.edu].

@BestWithoutGods . . . these crucial words :
"often interpreted to require separation of church and state"
"Though not explicitly stated in the First Amendment"

. . . refute the absolute requirement claim, even if historically sometimes INTERPRETED that way, there ARE different interpretations and there could be more coming.

. . . don't misunderstand -- I'm a FFRF member

@FearlessFly It would be nice to see the SCOTUS settle this well. In the meantime, why don't we agree to disagree agreeably.

@BestWithoutGods . . . well, when it comes to SCOTUS, I don't think "nice" has anything to do with it.
