My Thoughts

I pray that the USA corrects its misinterpretation of the First Amendment of the Constitution.

The first amendment states:
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.

How it's interpreted today is that people should be given freedom from religion. This is an important mistake. If it's freedom from religion then, like today, people will complain when there are Christmas decorations on the town green or people will complain when prayers are offered when the senate holds their meetings.

BUT the amendment states: freedom of religion!

If its 'freedom of religion' then anyone has the constitutional right to worship in regards to their faith without being denied such expression or prejudice towards them.

This is why it's so important to understand the OF and not the FROM!

Freedom of religion means put the creche on the town square and proclaim, Merry Christmas!

Freedom from religion means remove all signs of religion from the town square and proclaim nothing of any sort of religion.

I'm greatful the founding fathers made it, freedom of religion and I can boldly, and with my constitutional right, proclaim Merry Christmas!

Think about that.

Love,
Dad
