The Bushians, Bush Christians, try to justify combining church and state today in 2 ways:
1. Claim there is no such separation.
2. Claim cuz the forefathers were Christian that they wanted it this way.

So, let's examine what the forefathers were thinkin in their own words so u can stop falsely speaking 4 them:

Thomas Jefferson, one of our Christian forefathers stated on this topic: "...I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should "make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, thus building a wall of separation between Church and State."

Emphasis on the last sentence in his quote, "thus building a wall of separation between Church and State."

I know you Bushians wont agree with bold truth and fact cuz you lack that ability and only want to believe what you want to be true.

But there it is in your face!

On March 7, 2006 Bush passed an executive order 13397. Executive order means he bypasses congressional approval.

Executive Order 13397:
Responsibilities of the Department of Homeland Security with Respect to Faith-Based and Community Initiatives

Details can be found at http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2006/03/20060307-5.html

Here is just part of it:
"Section 1. Establishment of a Center for Faith-Based and Community Initiatives at the Department of Homeland Security."

The 1st Amendment states "....Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof...."

Thomas Jefferson made it very clear that there was to be separation between church and state. You can read his thoughts on this at.

Anyone else think that creating a Faith-Based Center within the Homeland Security dept that receives public funds, is unconstitutional?

If all working people took $30.00 out of the bank on Friday, put it in a drawer and not spend it, would it send a message to all businesses, that the working class people will not work just to pay for fuel and demand that the fuel price for transportation to work and fuel for home cooking, heating and cooling must be regulated to the medium income of each reagion of the country.
This is the results, if this amount of workers commited themselves, it would be hard but achiveable
150,000,000 - working people X $30.00 per week = $4,500,000,000.00 X 52 = $234,000,000,000.00

I think the government and business would notice, the banks would for sure because they would be short that much money every week, they stand to loose plenty and something would have to give. I think they would get the message, lower the fuel and food cost or put regulations on them.

I'll start this week

You know like the way Arnold in California became governor. The people signed petitions and got an election.

Shouldn't we be able to do this to a president?

when countries like Palenstine used a democratic election and voted in Hamas then we denounced them. We didn't like the outcome of that election so we don't recognize it as a democracy?

How do we get away with this hypocrisy?

Doesn't this make it clear that spreading democracy is an excuse for war-mongering?

If we knew an irreversible catastrophic change in earths environment was certain to happen in the future and that Humankind had ONLY two choices. Choice number one being we as humans do nothing, accept our fate and allow our species to perish forever OR the second choice, alter the genetics of humans to adapt to the new environment and guarantee the survival of humans? What is your answer?
