Reply #4: Actualy, the Constitution

[Tangerine LaBamba]

was written with religious liberty in mind - freedom to choose your religion, and choosing none is a valid choice. That's the definition of religious liberty. Contrary to what some wish were so, we are not a Christian nation. We are a secular nation, as guaranteed by the Constitution.

After all, our country was founded by people who chose not to worship as they had been ordered.

I think everyone in American schools, public, private, and parochial should be required to take a course in the Constitution, taught by a law school professor - like I once was, like Obama once was. Those of us who love and respect the Constitution make pretty good teachers, and because we are so enthusiastic about our subject, our students learn a lot and learn to love that venerable document as much as we do.

This kind of damnable ignorance is troubling. But, those who see only one way will continue to see only one way until they are shown the light. And, no, that's not a light shining from within a church......................
