    Strict literal interpretation of the bible.

    Specifically, the belief that Jesus is a divine being who is the source of man's salvation. That's obviously not true.

    The Ten Commandments are neither the moral or legal basis of the laws of The United States. At best 2 maybe 3 overlap our laws but not are a basis for our laws.
    The constitution does not forbid local governments from favoring one religion over the other. Local government all across America favored Christianity during America's early history. I mean, how can you claim to be in favor of "democracy" if you won't allow local communities to create governments that reflect their most deeply held beliefs?

    From the 14th Amendment: "No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

    A state violates the equal protection clause of the 14th when it favors one citizen's religious Faith over another's. The Supreme Court has ruled that most of the protections and governmental restrictions noted in the Bill of Rights are binding on the individual states - including the First Amendment, which prohibits the establishment of religion.
    Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split, as a general thing.” - Robert E. Howard

    The first amendment most certainly does NOT prohibit establishment of religion. That's only in your demented, religion-hating mind

    Oh, okay. My copy says, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion...", but maybe that's just a misprint.

    Brooklyn Lawmakers React to Cuomo's Threats Against Houses of Worship.....

    One of the few things that Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) and Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) seem to agree on is that New York's Jewish communities deserve all their scorn during this coronavirus pandemic. The city is experiencing a new surge in COVID cases, and the governor explained that most of those outbreaks are occurring in houses of worship. So he's once again limiting worship in those hot spots to 10 people, and banning mass gatherings altogether.


    This time Gov. Cuomo went one step further and threatened to close the synagogues and schools if they don't comply.

    "If you do not agree to follow the rules, then we will close the institutions down," he said. "I am prepared to do that."


    There's plenty of criticism for these leaders to go around. New Yorkers who have lost loved ones in nursing homes have demanded an independent investigation into Gov. Cuomo's dangerous decision to force those facilities to accept recovering COVID patients. He's so far resisted those investigations. .....snip~

    Democrats going after Jews and their religion. Not just Christians.




    History does not long Entrust the care of Freedom, to the Weak or Timid!!!!! Dwight D. Eisenhower ~

    not victims, just speaking the truth. I'm sure it is much more comfy for you if we all just ignore it.

    Christians should understand that the study of microbiology and virology makes the Darwin Theory weak and makes the Genesis story more true.
