The constitution is a document that is both strong as iron and as weak as tissue paper. The framers understood that there are people in our society that demand they have supremacy over all others. Religion, all religions as far as I can see, will not be happy until they force everyone to worship as they worship. Anything less is an infringement of their rights. They do not consider the rights of others. As an atheist I am subjected to prothlizers coming to my door and trying to instruct me in their brand of religion with no understanding that they have no moral right to insult my intelligence in such a way. But if I insist that they stop they are outraged. For the record, I have never had an American muslim doing the same thing, or a buddhist. It seems to be the preferred behaviour of Christians.

It is appalling to me and demonstrative of the progress Satan has made in the destruction and compromise of Christianity. It is precisely your antagonism and hatred of Catholics, based on ignorance, and taught prejudice, that is the reason for Satan's success. If you knew scripture and Christian history you would know that from the beginning of the Christian faith there was established the hierarchy of deacons, bishops and priests. Read Timothy! When Luther was interdicted and excommunicated he lost his right to the sacred priesthood. Thereafter, no protestant church had access to valid sacraments. Luther was the first protestant. Within 80 years there were over 200 different denominations waring against one another and if you believe the Inquisition was horrible it was no less equal to the heresy trials and executions by the protestants. Rome admits the Inquisition, the Spanish Inquisition, was wrong. The protestants remain silent and lest we forget so called witches were burned right here in America. For 1500 years there were basically two Christian Churches, the East (orthodox) and the West (Roman). 500 years later, in America, there are approximately 25,000 different protestant denominations, all using the same basic scripture, all having different interpretations of scripture and all offering slightly different paths to attain heaven. And who does this division serve if not the father of lies? Practically every protestant denomination that sanctioned women clergy have now or are in the process of putting their blessing on homosexuality. The East and the West do not. Satan wants to destroy the Christian Church and who better to assist him than ignorant Christians? There has always been attacks against the faith. St Paul was plagued with the heresy of Gnosticism. Chances are you know not one formally defined heresy but you are an expert on.......your feelings, your ignorance. But, in truth, it's not your fault. You've never been taught church history. By example, consider today how our youth are being purposely dumbed down on American history. Why? Whose purpose does it serve?

FYI, I am not a Roman Catholic. And although I firmly believe that Protestants have been thoroughly robbed of their Christian heritage and do not have the fullness of the faith once delivered by Christ to the Apostles, I believe what Christ told the apostles who discovered others, not sanctioned to preach the Gospel, doing so -"if they're not against us, they are for us." Might I suggest you do likewise.

My daughter was given a very pretty cross for her first Communion. She wore it to school one day and an ignorant teacher told her it was against the law for her to wear it to school because of the 'separation of church and state'. I told her if she wanted to wear it to go ahead and wear it. If the teacher wanted to try to discipline her for wearing it to be respectful and let me enlighten the teacher as to what the Constitution actually says. I didn't need to do anything as the kids took care of it themselves. Seems my daughter started a small revolt with her and all of her friends suddenly wearing crosses every day.
