In War on Religious Freedom, Trump Just Returned Fire

Posted On 05 May 2017

Anyone who has been paying attention for the last decade or so cannot deny that there is a serious war on religious freedom in the United States. For so long, this country was Christianity’s adopted home in the world – a beacon of light that shone brightly through our values, cultural norms, and unified patriotism. But in recent years, that has begun to change. First on a cultural level, which was bad enough. But then on a legal level, which has not only put the rights of Christians in jeopardy but has threatened to undermine the very foundation of our constitutional liberties.

“No American should be forced to choose between the dictates of the federal government and the tenets of their faith,” Trump said as he signed a new religious freedom executive order last week. “We will not allow people of faith to be targeted, bullied, or silence anymore. We will never ever stand for religious discrimination.”

The actual text of the order is somewhat esoteric; it ensures that churches and religious organizations will not lose their tax-exempt status if their leaders wade into the political fray. Most pastors and religious leaders insist that they are quite comfortable staying out of that fray, regardless of the IRS’s position on their speeches. So as a practical matter, it’s unlikely that last week’s order will have a revolutionary impact on the state of religious freedom in the United States.

That said, this is a big step forward and a drastic change in direction from the Obama years. Also included in the order was a directive to the Justice Department to begin looking for ways in which everyday Americans – whether or not they work for the federal government – can be protected against anti-discrimination lawsuits. THIS is the meat of the matter. Ever since the Supreme Court wrongly overturned state bans on gay marriage, business owners all over the country have been ensnared in one liberal trap after another. For doing nothing more or less than abiding by their Christian consciences, they have been penalized financially – often to the point of bankruptcy.

For all the noise that has been made in recent years about “gay rights,” it’s unbelievably refreshing to have a president who is willing to stand up for the ACTUAL rights enshrined in the U.S. Constitution. Whether you’re a Christian, a Jew, a Muslim, or an atheist, you will benefit from Thursday’s executive order. You may not know it yet, but it’s the truth.

        I am an Air Force veteran, I STAND for the National anthem and the American flag. I do NOT defile the flag but I will defend it against abuse and trash talk. I made an honest living by hard working, raised a family, married for 36 years until she passed away, own a home and a car, raised two children who share the same love for this country as I do. My children have never embarrassed me or my wife or themselves and have never been arrested or involved in any rioting, theft, drugs, ad nauseum. I question what you sir stand for yourself if you are defending “gotabgood”. I question the lack of common sense from his posts and now your post to me. I will say the same thing to you. If you do not like it here then leave.

        To Jim:
        
        1.
        Thank you for your service Sir; I do respect
        your opinion and stand, but I to served in the Air Force, I am a vet Nam era
        veteran.
        
        2.
        I worked
        all my life and made an honest living as well, and paid my taxes without
        complaint knowing they also go to help those in need through governing avenues.
        
        3.
        You sir can
        question me all you wish, that is your right, but I am as loyal and committed
        to my country as you or anyone else regardless of your attitude about me. Just
        because your find gotabgood” post, and mine
        disagreeable to your way of thinking, does not mean we are lacking in “common sense”;
        your comment does show your of ill repute and brainwashed by the gop republican
        spin machine. You should start thinking for yourself instead of letting then do
        the thinking for you!
        
        4.
        As far as leaving this country, I have as much
        right here as you or anyone else including you!
        
        5.
        I’ll put the same statement
        you made to me back to you “I will say the same thing to you. If you do not
        like it here then leave!
        
        6.
        “gotabgood” and I did no such thing as
        what you claim “abuse and trash talk”.
        
        7.
        But you seem to have engaged
        in it concerning gotabgood” and I. you should look at yourself in the
        mirror as far as your accusations sir. You really should accept ‘Jesus Christ
        as your savior, perhaps if you studied the Gospel in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and
        John (the firt four books of the New Testament) your attitude could change.
        
        8.
        I stand for Godliness and governance
        that respect all its citizen’s, not just the rich elite which the gop
        republicans cater to.
        
        9. I stand by my posted comment about the religious liberty issue, My religious liberties should be respected jut as much as anyone else s

        Just like you were Brainwashed by Obama and his ilk. The world is full of two-bit politicians and know-it-alls who feel that their way is the best way for everyone. Am I guilty of that? Maybe so. I am not GOD and neither are you so DO NOT PREACH TO ME ABOUT RELIGION. . You have NO IDEA how my personal life plays out and what I do with my faith and my life. FYI….I never said that I did not like it here….you did however say that to me.What that only does is show your ignorance on the matter and take the following any which way that pleases you……..

  I agree remove islim from this directive. America is a CHRISTIAN and we will not tolerate this EVIL SPECIES or their ideas. Deport all those who stand against our values and ideals.
  - anAmericanByChoice
    
    I am a Christian, but must say ***NO!*** albany le, America is NOT Christian. America makes no religion its official religion and imposes no creed on anyone. It’s because of people like you (well intentioned you may be) that Christians are being persecuted everywhere, including America, because atheists and the Godless, and radical Muslims, etc., believe they must turn everyone into whatever they want or what believe or do not believe in.
    
    The king, government or anyone else telling people what they should believe and worship is what the pioneers ran away from when they started immigrating to the Americas and what ultimately brought about independence to this country.
    
    Anyone, anyone at all who tries to impose their beliefs, religious or otherwise on others, and subjugate them, turn them into slaves, coerce them into submission, is not welcome in America and must either change their attitude and ideas and respect the fact that ALL of God’s creatures are created equal, and entitled to Life, Liberty, Property and the Pursuit of Happiness, or leave. If they cannot accept that, then they must go back to wherever they came from. America is for the brave and the free and must remain so.
    
    The limits of your beliefs and freedom stop only where they start limiting the beliefs and freedoms of your fellow Americans, citizens, legal residents of this or any other country. So, try to force me, or anyone else, to believe against what I believe in and peacefully practice, and you will see how hard I will push back and reclaim my God given rights! Extremism and fanaticism of any kind must be nipped in the bud as soon at it starts raising its ugly head! I will protect Life, Liberty, Property and my right to the Pursuit of Happiness against any who will try to take these God given rights away from me, and that includes my neighbor’s rights. That is why this well written article ends with the words, “Whether you’re a Christian, a Jew, a Muslim, or an atheist, you will
    benefit from Thursday’s executive order. You may not know it yet, but
    it’s the truth.” Try to take these away, and I don’t care who you are or what you believe in, you become the enemy to all this country should stand for!
    - Vince
      
      Hay American by choice, why don’t you go back where you came from, America was built on the belief in Gob…. and any Muslim piece of $hit that thinks they can change that is in for an a$$ kicking`

        one nation under God. We believe in God and so I still say America is a Christian nation. You can be a Jew, a Catholic or any other religion that believes in GOD and I believe that makes us a Christian Nation. muslims need not apply
      - socialsavvy
        
        In the pledge of the US flag, the words “one nation under God” was added in 1954 during the administration of Pres. Eisenhower. The word God has more than one meaning. And no America is not a Christian nation. If you believe that then tell me why we support “corporate welfare” in exaggerated amounts of tax cuts, when that money could be put to better use on our missions of caring for the American people in many ways. The government is not a church of any kind. Should those we elect be Christian, or Jew or whatever, that doesn’t make the US a Christian nation. The Congress is not working on interpretation of the New Testament. We are a nation whose people are free to worship the God they choose. It is very simple to keep things in the proper perspective when you think realistically.

        Thank you for the stats. I honestly did not know that there are currently that many people who consider themselves Christian. I have recently seen so many people in various walks of life who are something, maybe. Then there are those whom one doesn’t actually know for sure if they are Christian by the way they treat others. That is the bunch that bother me. If they are Christian, gee, what am I?

        Socialsavvy, I’m sure you probably know this already, but a Christian isn’t a Christian because of how they act. A Christian is a Christian because of what they believe and in whom they believe.

        What does corporate welfare have to do with religion OR Christianity? This doesn’t compute. Christianity is a belief in Christ and what He did for us.
      - socialsavvy
        
        I agree with your statement. But if one nation under God I think we have something to consider. We really are not a government under God. The President isn’t a preacher and Congress isn’t the choir. We Americans are paying loads of money for the manufacturing of war weapons by the billions. These are our taxes. This money also goes to some very wealthy people who own the industries. It is an on going contract. The money that is put into the American economy through building of the infrastructure, taking care of health care, and social programs such as Medicare, is lacking because of the huge input into these fat cat industrial barons pockets. No one ever says or does a thing about it. We have an over abundance of antiquated equipment and still make more. So that is corporate welfare. When it comes to taking care of the poor in this countries people pee all over themselves to think that one cent of their money goes to help someone who may not be eligible. In their minds they say deserve. It isn’t based on morals it is based on needs and eligibility. People in this country don’t care about the poor except with Christmas baskets at the 25th of Dec. I often think that is when they sooth their conscious with doing the Christmas thing. Even Thanksgiving? Well, it has to do with our using our money in the government for good things all equal and fair. When DT made the statement that we have been loosing wars, we have lost a lot of wars, but WE ARE GOING TO WIN WARS! He plainly stated that he would make sure we had his war. Who gets the money for the wars…..people who produce armour for the battles?
        
        I guess you are right….it doesn’t compute…”one nation under God” is just a saying isn’t it.
      - No name nut case
        
        Yes, it is just a tagline. The majority of Americans today have no idea who God is, and Jesus Christ is used as a curse phrase. But that aside, who said that the government has to take care of the needy? I think that is a way to just get our money and use it how they want to! Have you ever seen anyone get off of welfare once they got on it? If everyone in the U.S. helped people with a hand up, instead of a hand out, the welfare office would have to close down. The welfare classes would have jobs! Some would raise their status and by going to school. We have allowed the government to take over what the churches took care of at one time! The churches helped people instead of building mega-churches! These people should be able to get what they need to improve their social status, which is a job and an education, not a lifetime on government support. In the beginning of welfare, it was not intended to be a lifestyle, it was supposed to be temporary to help people get on their feet. I don’t recall off hand when it was, but I’m thinking it was after the Great Depression and the Dust Bowl. So many people back then had no jobs, no food and no way to get any. I think government intentions were good, but they failed to keep up with it and it went “viral” and they figured out it was a way to control people!

        The word “God” was first used in scripture. Those who are not one of the “three in one” (Trinity) are not God. They might be a god, there are many gods, but they are not God in any way. (The Trinity is the three aspects of one Deity.)
      - socialsavvy
        
        True, but in America (US) we have an assortment of religious beliefs other than the Christian faith. As with Hindus, they have so many gods it is hard to imagine. They have a god for this and that and the other. But not one God. Muslims have one God, he is Allah. Budda is a God if I am not mistaken. I do not remember it has been so long since I studied all the different religions of the world. There are several religions in Japan. Then on in India area are a few more. Anyway, even Christ talked about the various gods that man has such as the big one we have in America. That is the LOVE of money. It is the Love of money that makes money a god to people. It is the love that is the sin, however. So regardless, my point was that the words “one nation under God” was not entered into the pledge to the Am Flag until 1954. It has not always been there. America has not always considered themselves (the politicians and founding fathers) as a Christian nation. We are under God ok, but it is not the government that put us there. Our faith is personal. I am not sure if the majority of the American people are of the Christian faith. It would be nice if so, but there are a lot of people who just float along maybe going to a church and perhaps not. I know one man who goes to church because he is of the social strata that requires that he put himself in good light in the community. He will tell you he doesn’t believe in God. Our local black community has more Christian churches than the white people I am sure. Very faithful too. I go to funerals at the black churches sometimes and believe me they have a lot of attending people. As I said, this nation under God was not always in our pledge. That is it.

        The “one nation under God” was there when I began to go to school. Lol! Yes I am aware of all of the religious beliefs. I belong to one you’ve probably never heard of. It is a very small when compared to every other organized belief. (I don’t call it a “religion” because that word indicates what one does over and over and over, not what one believes.) But, when the Pilgrims came to America there was only the beliefs of the Natives here. The Pilgrims were protestants but I don’t recall off hand which specific denomination that they were.

        Being Christian has nothing to do with welfare, corporate or otherwise, although a LOT of Christians are very generous to the needy within and without their congregations. A Christian church is about teaching and preaching about the Lord Jesus Christ. If a church does not preach and teach about the Lord Jesus Christ, they are not a Christian church. A lot of churches support various charities, and a lot give money to individual members who are in need. You are right that the government is not a church.
        A lot of government welfare recipients do not go to church. When one says that America is a Christian nation, they are referring to the majority of churches are Christian or claiming to be Christian. No one ever said that the majority of Americans were Christian. Too many have allowed themselves and their families to fall away from congregational worship and a lot have forgotten about God and have quit telling their children about Him. All churches are not and never have been Christian. (The word “Christian” refers to belief in Christ. The word “church” means “congregation.” A congregation can be any type of gathering, not necessarily a Christian congregation.) So, as one can see, one has to be more specific as to their terminology to keep from offending people.
        No one said that Congress is working on interpretation of the New Testament, if they tried the majority of Christians would laugh at them and reject their form of interpretation…then they’d vote against them in the next election! Most of the people in high offices in government don’t have a clue what the bible says, but that goes for many many of non-government people, also! (So what else is new?)
        The word “God” is His title, not His name. Just as “King” is a title.

        By the way, Jews are not Christian. I’m sure that you didn’t intend to group Jews in with Christians. Jews/Israelis do not believe Christ is their Messiah, and, as a matter of fact, they don’t believe Christ was anyone special at all. They think He was a criminal who was crucified.
      - No name nut case
        
        It depends upon what “God” they believe in. There are many gods, but only one Jehovah God. The Bible, which has been distributed around the world in all languages, talks about Jehovah God. Jew is not a nationality. Jews are the members of a religion called Judaism. I’m sure you are referring to Israeli’s, who are a nationality.

        America was founded by people who left European nations for various reasons. The English sent loads of convicts here to unload their jails. Be it so that many, many of the people sent from jails in England had been there because they did not wish to worship the same religious beliefs as the King at that time. The Church of England eventually made it’s way to America and is known as the Episcopal church. The Pilgrims came as to form their own denomination. As for the major part of the settlers, they were sent here by England to form colonies to trade with England. In fact, it was these colonies that fought against England for their freedom. They did not want the rule of England and did not like the tariffs that they had to pay. The Constitution was written by very learned men. Only a small number were professing Christians. Some had other beliefs regarding God and creation. Regardless, the right to worship what ever religious faith was guaranteed by the freedom acts in the constitution. The founding fathers did not want the same situation in America as was in Europe where the monarchs were the head of the church as well as the government. So you people better get this in your heads once and for all. Every person in the U.S. can attend what ever religious services they wish. Not all religions are Christian. But all religions are protected under the Constitution. It is my right as a Catholic, or Jew to worship in my church. Thank God the government cannot dictate the title of the official church of the US. That is because, so far, we all have freedom of religion. If I were a Muslim, I could worship in a Mosque. If I were an atheist I could skip all churches. As a citizen of the US. I can vote. To have the rule of separation of church and state, guarantees that I will not have to go to the church that the president of the U.S. attends. It guarantees that my child doesn’t have to pray the rosary because the principal of the school is Catholic. Do you get my drift? By making each of our own church stronger to serve it’s members, doing the work of the Lord aimed at salvation of others, but not trying to force anything upon anyone we are doing what is correct. Also, by not trying to do away with another’s rights to be what they wish, we can be Americans who support the Constitution. Otherwise, we are no better than the rulers who try to force a religion by rule upon the citizens of their nation,. So being an American by choice is also a way to choose what religious faith you want. That has nothing to do with voting or anything else.

        My memory is not as before I got to that latest 0 on the last # of my age. However, I think the really, really bad criminals were sent to Australia. The people who did not pay taxes to the King because they had no work (that is stupid now isn’t it), anyway they did not have the money to pay the taxes and got sent to prison. Some were in prison due to their differences in religious beliefs. These were sent over to the U.S. Likely because they were considered lazy and they just figured they’d die or something dumb like that. I had that in History 201 (American History). At least I know where I was when I was supposed to have learned it.

      Several big name Evangelical churches working with the pope for a world government and a world religion. They want to make Sunday a forced day of worship and no work allowed, Sunday is the day the pagans worshipped the Sun , this could be the mark of the beast. You are so correct being against a church and state merger, the earliest Christians that migrated here came here to escape this very thing. The 501 C 3 churches allowed the government [IRS] to dictate what they could preach and say. Right now there is a huge movement by the Evangelical churches to form a system that is a mixture of Communism and Fascism, I saw this coming years ago I didn’t have a name for it but someone gave it a name. I will try to find it.

        When preachers/pastors start telling their congregations who to vote for is when the pews will begin to be empty! I don’t know about anyone else, but when someone tries to tell me that I have to vote for a particular candidate against my will, it is the time I will leave that church, and I’m sure others would be inclined to do the same.

        You’re wrong, the Bible indicates no such thing. Papal Rome adopted the Sun-Day a clear violation of Yahweh’s law, and host of other things taken from the Babylonian Mystery religion. Look it up, it’s already on the books in some states [Blue Law] The new pope has been talking about a Sunday law being made mandatory since he came on the scene. When the tribulation hits is most likely when it will happen, they will blame Christians who choose the Sabbath day instead of pagan Sunday.

        Where did you get that bit of info.? Evangelicals should be the last to get into government, but they aren’t always knowledge and should keep their business out of the government. As far as the Pope, he likely is too smart for thinking of such a merger. I’d hope so. I do hope that any one with a brain keep the church rules and laws where they are. The governments are not above using religious groups to get elected. Would it help the churches? Very doubtful. I hope that if this ever even becomes a subject in the government of the US. that Congress stops it completely immediately. If not, I would say that all real believers would walk out of any church which supported such an idea. I am seriously opposed to the action being considered to allow ministers to guide or tell it’s members who to vote for. That makes me furious. It is wrong, in the beginning, it is wrong at this time, and it is wrong for anything in the future.

        I recall at one time in the state where I reside that stores were closed on Sundays. That seemed to be a good idea so people could have one day to rest. As far as that change. I was not in favor necessarily. That however, doesn’t mean that I want Preachers in politics in order to get various laws passed for their churches. I don’t like the government to get involved in churches either. I doubt that the “blue law” would ever pass if taken to the citizens vote, Maybe if they were aware that the stores are open due to the fact they have a clot of customers on Sunday. It is always about money.

        That’s what America’s first Christians were getting away from, government controlled religion, namely Papal Rome. I believe this will have something to do with the mark of the beast, way too long to put on here, one thing for sure it will be something the vast majority will accept and those of us that don’t will be persecuted, a one world religion will come together, I just cant see Islam being the major religion, Islam cannot be a spiritual whore because Islam is a anti-Christ religion, just like a woman cannot commit adultery if she isn’t married to a husband. However they will wreak havoc of the world before the anti-Christ puts them down.
      - socialsavvy
        
        Interesting information. I wonder if it would be that a micro chip will be required to be implanted on ones hand or forehead which will be the mark of the beast. For safety in keeping ones bank account safe, on & on. One thing I have to disagree about is a woman cannot commit adultery if she is not married to the man she is involved with. If the man the woman is committing adultery with is married, she is causing him to commit adultery and would also be committing adultery because of his marriage. As the Scripture says “Let no one put asunder what God has joined together.” I can thankfully say that my marriage was approved by God.
        As I understand, the anti-Christ will be leader of the Christian world, as a false “fake” Christian. He will do all the good and people will be fooled. Then everything will break-down and nations will fight and then it is Jesus the Christ who will return to claim his own. I did notice something in one of the news blogs that the Pope wanted to confer with the Islamic leaders to work out a peaceful solution to the conflicts in the middle east and have control of ISIS. I did not read the information so cannot actually comment. As I tell my family, just be true to Christ and never worship anyone else. Think of having no electricity, no fuel, and no way to pay for groceries unless you have a a micro chip available that will give you payment. Or there may be a new currency other than that. Only a guess.

        Christians meet on the first day of the week because it was “Resurrection Day” (the day Christ resurrected). We aren’t mandated to congregate on any particular day. Sunday became the customary day to come together to worship. A group of believers can meet on any day they prefer, or every day for that matter.

  Some FACTS about what you’re saying … from the Koran. Their “holy book”
  commands them to kill people who don’t believe in their “religion”.
  
  Those suicide bombers, etc., are the TRUE followers of Islam … not the bench sitters!
  
  Koran 2:191 “slay the unbelievers wherever you find them”
  Koran 3:21 “Muslims must not take the infidels as friends”
  Koran 5:33 “Maim and crucify the infidels if they criticize Islam”
  Koran 8:12 “Terrorize and behead those who believe in scriptures other than the Koran”
  Koran 8:39 “So fight them until there is no more fitna [strife] and all submit to the religion of Allah.”
  Koran 8:60 ” Muslims must muster all weapons to terrorize the infidels”
  Koran 8:65 “The unbelievers are stupid, urge all Muslims to fight them”
  Koran 9:5 “When the opportunity arises, kill the infidels wherever you find them”
  Koran 9:123 “Make war on the infidels living in your neighborhood”
  Koran 22:19 “Punish the unbelievers with garments of fire, hooked iron rods, boiling water,
  melt their skin and bellies”
  Koran 47:4 “Do not hanker for peace with the infidels, behead them when you catch them”
  
  The Qur’an in a variety of verses (2:225, 3:28, 3:54, 9:3, 16:106, 40:28,
  and 66:2) establishes the religious legitimacy of breaking oaths, lying,
  unilaterally violating treaties, and generally scheming against
  non-Muslims. Allah himself is described as “the best of schemers” (3:54,
  8:30, 10:21), and Muhammad declared, as a justification for murdering
  unarmed prisoners after offering them safe passage, “war is deceit” (see
  the Hadith collection of Bukhari, vol. 4, book 52, numbers 268–271).

    If i were so inclined, I could cite an equal number of verses from the bible that depict the Christian god as a vengeful, evil, sadistic creature, yet billions of people believe that this same being is going to watch over and care for them and them alone. Once again, it proves that fanatics can hijack any religion and twist it around to serve their own needs.

      Charlie. You are a fool why don’t you show some of those verses, because you can not. Jesus only spoke of love and forgiveness. And peace

        You want examples of a vengeful, evil, vindictive, self-centered God?
        
        Let’s start with the Garden of Eden. God throws Adam & Eve out of the Garden for eating an apple.
        
        God orders Abraham to sacrifice his son to prove his loyalty.
        
        God decides man is unworthy and wicked so he sends a flood to kill of his creation, except for Noah and his family.
        
        What about some of God’s laws where he prescribes the death penalty?
        – making sacrifices to a God other than him,
        – a rebellious child or a child who strikes or curses his parents,
        – premarital sex,
        – working on the sabbath
        – stoning an adulterous wife (but not the husband?)
        
        There is just one God, old and new testament. It’s just that in the new testament, Jesus tells us we should forget the past and believe that his father is a loving and merciful God.

        Well Charlie, you certainly have a way with twisting words, don’t you? If you actually read the Bible with even a centilla of understanding you might come away with a different attitude. But, it seems you have a deep hatred for all things Christian. Well, what I say is, to each their own. I don’t have to stand up for you or pay for your debt to God when you die. Everyone has to answer for themselves. I’m certainly thankful for that.
      - No name nut case
        
        Well, actually the Bible does speak of those who reject Christ and what happens to them. The Bible warns people of what to expect, so they have no one to blame but themselves when they are burning in hell. But, they don’t have to go there. Everyone is given a choice and they have to make that choice by faith while they are still alive. Ignoring that choice IS a choice. The choice is totally left up to each individual. No real Christian makes anyone do anything concerning their eternal existence. God doesn’t twist anyone’s arm, but He does warn them, which is a good thing, not a bad thing. Escaping the punishment is easiest, and yet the hardest thing on earth to do, because giving up one’s pride is difficult.
        Death of the human body is not the death one needs to fear. The death that one should fear is the second death.

The first thing they’ll do is kill my dog that I’ve raised from a puppy and is now about 8 years old and understands most everything we say. I’d be so grateful to them for that.

Why is the left so “classless”? They name-call in a way that I can’t imagine they can win any coherent discussion about the issues. All of them, including their uncouth politicians are a disgrace to a supposedly well educated, Christian society. I guess you can’t call it Christian any longer, but it surely has regressed when you compare it to the rhetoric of years past. Personally, I remember when the government was not involved in healthcare at all, and it was fine. Most people bought insurance – or had enough money to be self-insured – and the poor people had good access. They always tell us Social Security is on the verge of collapse – everything they try to do eventually goes broke. The current society has made a bunch of “snowflakes” – whose behavior is certainly not an asset to a great society.
- Charlie ********
  
  Exactly how did poor people always have good access? Sure they can go to an emergency room and get treated but when the bill comes, we get stuck paying the bill when they can’t. It’s a shame that Americans have to lose their homes just to try and pay off medical bills. Yes, they had access to the care. There is a big difference between access and affordability.
  - Joe Maxwell
    
    Poor people have for years have had access to doctors who would treat them in exchange for whatever that person could afford to give them. I have a brother in law who is a retired MD who used to get chickens and other such items for his services. There were County owned Charity Hospitals that cared for the very poor. Then came Medicaid. The very poor have always had access to health care. It is the lower middle class that has the problem. There are factors that have made the cost of health care go up faster than the cost of higher education. I do not plan to try to get into that.
    - Charlie ********
      
      I challenge you to offer to pay your next hospital bill with chickens or goats. Go ahead, I dare you!
      
      And for those who can’t pay, the rest of us are left holding the bag when hospital costs rise to cover care for the indigent.

      Uhhh, Excuse me. How old are you? Have you ever gone to a doctor or to the e.r.? Believe me! They DO send a bill to EVERYONE! Whether or not one can pay for it depends upon the individual’s income, but a low income person gets a bill just like the high income person. Don’t believe it? Ask the poor income person at the E.R. sometime if they will get bill. I used to work in hospitals and I worked in a doctor’s office. Everyone gets a bill!

      That’s true, but where do you think that money comes from? You and I. So, taxpayers are paying off the bills of people who have no health insurance and providing huge profits to health care corporations. Wouldn’t it make more sense to put that money to better use by providing health care to every American so they could afford to see a doctor and not have to tie up emergency rooms as their primary care provider every time the kids have an ear infection or a sniffle?

  I totally agree with “classless” and “name calling”! Social Security is broke because politicians STOLE from it and continue to STEAL from it! It was supposed to be a trust, but the rotten skunks in government began “borrowing” from it, and accidentally on purpose, forgot to pay it back. They were even supposed to pay interest. Yeah, right. Today they act like it is welfare money! Those people on welfare never paid a dime into what they get!!! l It’s the working class’s money! Retirees paid every single penny that went into their retirement fund! The government decided that they could give our generation the money that the next generation pays. But, they didn’t count on the last generation living as long as they did, or the birth rate being as low as it has been. All I can say is that I am glad we (my spouse and I) saved and invested as much as we could for over 30 years, because I doubt that anyone could live very well on what S.S. pays, unless they made really large salaries (like the politicians)!

Somehow,somewhere…some of the very same qualities of the Declaration of Independence & in the Signers of the Constitution, lie the very threads our President embodies. People of true Faith should band- together and give our inddidvidual support- refuse to tolerate the demonic traits of the last few years…it truly is our last Golden opportunity to stand United behind him. Seeing some of the recent Liberal attacks on us makes me want to Puke-in-stereo.. Godspeed Americans!
remember the opposition campaign with…”…stronger together?” What kinda strong?

  Sir: Donald Trump is a liar of the worst kind. God hates liars and a few other people. Read Revelations. He has a few other traits that God declares as evil. Just observe the lying. He lies then lies about lying. Someday we will likely find out just how much DT LOVES money. It will likely bit him.

They think that they will use them and then get rid of them. But they have another thought coming; they will find their own heads on a stick!

      You believe what you want. I won’t be so rude to call you a right wing moron, insensetive to the needs of the American people. One who supports corporate welfare, one who wants to destroy medical health care for people. One who supports a President who wants to do away with Social Security and Medicare, his followers do for sure. If Donald Trump loves America why is he buddies with those who consider us as an enemy. Do you really think he is innocent in giving them classified information? He isn’t fit to be President and should go back to the tower.
      - No name nut case
        
        On the contrary, I am not insensitive (it’s is not spell right in your diatribe) to the needs of the American people. On the contrary I am VERY sensitive to the needs of the American people, with their safety being first! What good is wealth, food, fine clothing, etc, if they are dead?! The Muslims are not our friends and never have been! They are at this moment planning on how to destroy our country. The problem with Obama, followed by Hillary was them consorting with the enemy. Neither of them give a hoot about the citizens of this country.
        Trump has no plan to do away with Social Security or Medicare. I am ON BOTH, if anyone should be afraid of that it would be me! I’m not because my husband and I have talked to them about it and they are not the least bit concerned about either program being shut down. Social Security and Medicare are a trust. It can not be defunded.
        Obamacare was a total disaster! The premiums would have gone up exponentially every year. The entire country, except for the very rich, who don’t need government medical plans anyway, would be spending everything they could get their hands on to pay for it!
        Give me some example of Trump consorting with the enemy, please. He is not giving them classified information, that is pure Democrat scare tactics. Give him a year or so and I guarantee you that you will see he is not “buddies” with the enemy. As a matter of fact he has already given them an ultimatum that was rather scary, and guess what, we are still here! Of course you didn’t know anything about that, because you watch liberal tv news, such as ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, etc. Try to listen to Fox news sometime and see what you are missing.

        I am sorry, but it is not the media making up what is going on at this time. He did meet with the Russian Ambassador, and another Russian government figure. I was not there, to tell you the conversation. Trump’s requesting Comey to stop the investigation of Flynn, is for all general assessment, an Obstruction of Justice. The Special Counsel Mueller seems to be the best to do the investigation. He is most Honorable.
        I likely did not see to make the correction on insensitive. I sometimes have dry eyes which I need to care more for but just get to writing and don’t worry.
        I hope that Medicare and Social Security is secure. I forget where I heard this rumour. I like to call every thing rumour until it is obviously something to it. So often the government has dipped into the SS for funds to help in other areas. I’ve heard that from time to time for years. There are the na-sayers who have often said that SS will dissolve. I will see what I can find on it. The na-sayers, I am referring to those on the internet who put out major rumours about anyone who is different from their very punitive beliefs. By the way, my spell check always spells rumor, as rumour as well as neighbour etc. I understand that the one who heard the Trump discussion with the Russians gave the information with being very concerned about his safety. That could be true, or maybe not. One of the things that was of concern was that Trump asked Pense to leave the room when the discussion went on with the Russians. That is not a major thing, but was discussed briefly. All will happen that will happen. The Trump alleged Collusion between Trump and the Russians is a very, very, serious thing.
        
        The Republican’s want the investigation and want the answers.

      Thank you for your compliments that are so sincere! Ha. My party, isn’t the majority in Congress. I Do not know what the Muslims are doing here in the numbers that they are. I am not afraid of them and Yes I know who the Mulsims, rather the Arabs, bloodline is. I have no doubt that there are many Muslims, especially those from the nations where we invaded and did war hate us. I have not so good feelings about the Germans and I was a very little kid when WWII happened. Actually, it has more to do with those who followed a full blown Psychopath to kill and destroy a major portion of the world, also many of our own. So I know that there are those who lived in war torn countries where we Americans have plundered for oil or whatever reason they have, must hate Americans or America. It is an amazing situation.
      Trump put our country back to work in 100+ days. WE have a milti-billion dollar project going on, it is current, but the planning obviously had been in the work for a much longer time than 100 days. I hope Trump has done something constructive. He has kept the country in a up-roar about what he will say and do next. He is not of sound mind. I do not care if you say I am a brain washed idiot. It just lets me know you are not good at all at judging people’s intellect.

        There is little doubt Islam is NOT a religion of peace in fact I suggest, it is neither a religion or even a cult, although it is close to a cult, what it is is an ideology of superiority, a way of life, a dictatorial system of government that is communistic. It more emulates the KKK than a religion. In fact it is total and absolute control of everyone and everything 24/7/365. Therefore it is worse, much worse if, in fact, that is possible than communism or fascism. It makes females less than human. Who it is even legal to beat and or kill within the Islamic so called religion. Females have no rights at all. Islam is disguised as a religion in order to garner acceptance among the populations of the world as well as government(s) recognition and protections which allows it privileges it would not otherwise be afforded (Especially in the United States of America). It could be impossible to get farther from a religion than is Islam’s shariah law. Its objective is world dominance. Its objective is complete and total control of everything and everybody, by force if necessary, through a caliphate. It means to rule the world and those who cannot be converted to Islam must be “killed.” It is total control because it is so superior nothing or no one is its equal in the minds of muslims. It is perhaps much worse then hitlers Third Reich, or any barbaric dictator during the dark ages, like Genghis Khan and it is just as barbaric, probably more barbaric if that is even possible. Keep in mind these people are still living in the 700’s AD. It also uses the make believe religious belief as leverage to keep members in line because of the fact it, (religiously) declares they be killed if they leave Islam. It preaches killing of non believers as well as is true about all other religions, including atheists and rewarding the murderers with virgins if they themselves are killed performing these brutal acts. This is not even close to a religion? Anyone outside of Islam is considered an infidel (all infidels are inferior to its members) from the followers of Islam therefore they must be killed. Gays and lesbians have no place within the so called religion. And are brutally murdered. Sometimes thrown off high buildings.
        
        It is also a fact ISIS has declared their intention(s) is to embed terrorists into the refugees from Syria. obama knew it. But it was hillary who wanted to increase the number of refugees by 550 percent, one of the reasons, by the way, she was not elected but Donald Trump was. Which in itself saved American lives.
        
        Islam respects no other law or rules other then Islam (shariah law). Once again because it regards itself superior to everything and everyone. It is NOT compatible with the American constitution! A believer in Islam cannot assimilate into American society as well as any nation not ruled by shariah law, it is not allowed. It is punishable by death. The Qur’an displays the fact their prophet Mohammed was mentally ill and so were/are his followers. It motivates with fear and permeates hate and death not love as is normal for all religions. There is no good within Islam. Islam in itself demonstrates perversion. Islam and its followers beliefs are in complete direct conflict with everything American. Absolutely everything. Individual freedoms are not allowed within Islam. It is recommended muslims lie to Christians in order to defeat and murder them to acquire total control over them.
        
        Islam’s prophet, Mohammad was beyond any doubt a mental case. More specifically a sexual pervert among many other mental problems. So he was evil in all ways not just religiously. Islam is the worshiping of evil. They mutilate females sexual organs when they are very young. They stone to death women who are raped. They are more evil than Satanists. More and more people and nations are awaking to the (necessary) reason for the crusades. If things go on as is now happening a reply to Islam like the crusades will be necessary again. There is no reason to believe muslims will abandon their intentions. No reason at all. They are taught to hate from birth.
        
        The killing of non-believers is not the only crime perpetrated on humans once the women are sexually mutilated they use them as sex slaves. So that is a religion? Absolutely NOT! They are barbarians who have no morals or respect for another life. Females within Islam are considered less then human. Something to be used and beaten and forced to do the mens will.
        
        The crusades (https://www.britannica.com/event/Crusades) have been criticized in modern times and even by president obama. Proving he is at the very least a muslim sympathizer. However, it is becoming obvious why there was a necessity for such action as the crusades. This war on the world started before 700 AD by Islam. The wholesale killing of muslims may very well become necessary again and very soon. If Christians as well as all other religions, and non believers are to survive it will become necessary to fight perhaps to the total and complete annihilation of Islam. Islam is determined to kill everyone in the world who thinks differently then they do. No group on earth has killed as many for as long as has Islam. Everyone who does not believe in Islam according to the Qur’an MUST be killed. That is a religion?
        
        Even those muslims who claim to dislike, or not approve of jihad, by their silence approve of the way of jihad if they worship via the Qur’an. It is said some 87% of muslims believe in shariah. Since it is not compatible with the American constitution how are they to assimilate into our society?

        I noticed a confusion of terms in your otherwise very good dissertation.
        1.”Religion” is something one does over and over and over, but it doesn’t necessarily have a single thing to do with Jehovah God. All kinds of heinous things are done in the name of religion.
        2.Christianity is a belief in Jehovah God (God the Father), Jesus Christ (God the Son), and God the Holy Spirit as laid out in the Christian bible. Religion and Christianity are not the same thing, although some denominations within Christianity seem to require specific religious work. Christians do not believe in killing people who disagree with them. Christians don’t rape women and children as a part of their belief system. They don’t kill women and children because some pervert raped them, as the Muslims are known to do.
        Anyone can do something religiously and it not have anything to do with God or worship. This is the case with Muslims. They made up their set of rules for their religion (“things that they do”) over many centuries and which includes all kinds or heinous deeds.
        This is the difference between Christianity/Christians, and Islam/Muslims and why it shouldn’t be so difficult to weed them out of our country! There are many sects or divisions within Christianity, but they all claim belief in Christ as their savior.
        Islam does not believe the same as Christians! They don’t believe anywhere near the same!
        Do not let anyone fool you into thinking that Muslims are like us! They are not, in any way like us! The two can not exist together!

      All you have to do is look to the EU to see what bringing these animals in. Sweden is now the rape Capitol of the World, out of every 100,000 inhabitants 53.2% of their women are now raped, Germany isn’t far behind, so many more countries are fighting for their survival. There is simple math here. The more Muslims a country has, the more terrorism, the less the fewer. We need to contact our elected officials and insist they all be rounded up and put back where they came from, in safe-zones if necessary, but NEVER HERE.
      
      They also need to designate The Muslim Brotherhood, C.A.I.R., and Muslims of America, HAMAS, and many other groups, as a terrorist groups also. They are so designated in many other nations, even Muslim nations. Sen Cruz has a bill up to designate MB as a terrorist group, I sure hope it passes. Yet I know it is not enough. We need to move these Muslims out of America. They have Jihad training camps all over America. Obama and the Communist Democrats refused to rule them terrorist groups, although they are so deemed in many other countries, even Muslim countries.
      
      35 Jihad Camps in America
      Terrorist Cells – TRAINING CAMPS in AMERICA – SEE this actual video
      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXOLGLkUhhM&sns=em
      
      The recruitment video shows American converts to Islam being instructed in the operation of AK-47 rifles, rocket launchers and machine guns, grenade, and C4 explosives. There is even the possibility they have nuclear weapons because we know they have small portable nukes they can bring in and assemble on site. ISIS is coming and going over our border with Mexico, and they caught five Arabs with a steel cylinder that they suspected. They also caught a Muslim woman with a detailed map of the oil pipe line. The drug smugglers have been bring ISIS in to seek out targets. The camps are training how to: kidnap Americans, kill them, and how to conduct sabotage and subversive operations. They are also organizing trying to establish a third Political Party.
      
      Confirmed Jamaat ul-Fuqra Jihadi training camps are located in:
      
      Alabama: Marion
      California: Baladullah, Oak Hill, Squaw Valley, Tulare City
      Colorado: Buena Vista, Trout Creek Pass (over 120 acres)
      Florida: Talahassee
      Georgia: Commerce, Macon, Mecca Circle, Wayne County, Jessup
      Massachusetts: Springfield
      Maryland: Hagerstown and Hyattsville
      Michigan: Coldwater
      New York: Binghamton, Deposit, Hancock (headquarters)
      Oklahoma: Talihina
      Pennsylvania: Philadelphia, Wayne County
      South Carolina: In York County, the 36-acre compound,“Holy Islamville,” is a self-defined Islamist village that has established its own Sharia Law based civil government.
      Tennessee: Dover
      Texas: Houston and Waco
      Virginia: Fairfax, Falls Church, Meherrin, Roanoke, and Red House (over 120 acres)
      West Virginia: Bethany
      Washington: Onalaska
      Americans have every right to demand that their government, at a minimum, deport those collaborating with, funding, and training terrorists from U.S. soil.
      
      Elected officials must explain:
      
      •Why are taxpayers funding Islamist charter schools?
      •Why are terrorist groups operating under a nonprofit status, let alone at all, on American soil?
      •Why aren’t Jamaat ul-Fuqra camps closed and Islamists deported?
      •Why have there been no Congressional hearings (similar to Iran-Contra) to eradicate these terrorist groups?
      •Why are Muslim Brotherhood and C.A.I.R. operatives working in the Departments of Justice and Homeland Security?
      It’s clear the ugly direction of Islamic wind is blowing across America’s soil.
      
      We have one supreme law in our land and it is the Constitution. All Shariah needs stopped. Shariah is a separate government, a political movement meant to takeover governments and political systems, a ruling of Muslims. NOT IN AMERICA! If any chose to live under Shariah they need to move to another country. Their citizenship should be revoked, and they need to leave, not just go underground. America does not tolerate subversive activity and Shariah is subversive.

        It is so much worse. This is also important to know. I would also give you this, even SecState Kerry is telling Americans these people, not radicalized but EVERYDAY Muslims, are a danger to Americans.
        —
        I will quote SecState Kerry who issued a statement proclaiming this clause in referencing the ISIS genocide of Christians, “Humanitarian aid: Many of these genocide victims are now displaced from their homes. They cannot seek shelter in U.N. camps, because those places are too dangerous for minorities — and therefore they must depend heavily on church and private relief. Even as donor fatigue sets in as the conflicts persist, U.S. aid programs must ensure that these genocide victims are not shortchanged.”
        
        That is clearly stating these refugees slated for resettlement are dangerous to Christians and minorities. America is a 70+% Judeo-Christian nation! Thus by default it is also too dangerous to bring these Muslim refugees to our homeland. I would be happy to list all the source links.
        
        Furthermore every intelligence agency we have has testified before Congress including Comey that it is impossible to vet them, not for lack of trying but for lack of records. As Comey said, we could vet them “until the cows come home” and we still would get nothing because there are no records to be found on them. You cannot vet nothing. Anyone telling you they are safely vetted is lying to your face. They also testified that the refugees are embedded with ISIS.
        
        Beyond that we have plenty of video and news media evidence that demonstrates these people are already radicalized, as they are raping, molesting, and destroying every one of the host countries that take them in. I can give you long, long list of videos on these as well.
        
        No one is saying allow them to be killed. Everyone is saying resettle them back in the Middle East in safe-zone where they are protected, but not a danger to us. Look they are still living in the 7th century in their minds. They are just plan too dangerous, especially to women and children whom they believe is their right to rape, again a culture thing. The news media is hiding all the rapes happening even here and in the EU, just like they censored the Orlando tapes.
        
        Furthermore stats show the majority NEVER go off welfare. Their culture believes it is stupid to work for what is given to them for free. Expecting them to work was tried by a German outfit and they found them too stupid to grasp fundamentals. They are not only uneducated, unskilled, don’t speak English, but their inbreeding since the 7th century has cause them to have low IQs and many birth defects. I could give you links on this also. If they are in the Middle East, when the Middle East is settled down, we can walk away from them. Here we are stuck supporting them for life. Everything about having them here is a massively bad idea.
        
        The other thing is all the jihad camps all over America. Hannity Show did multiple shows on them. They are stock piling high power weapons. Nothing good can be in the works there. The last thing we need to do is keep bringing in reinforcement for them. Use your head, these people are better off back in the Middle East living with people of their own culture. Better for them and us.
        
        Based on the Qu’ran’s “…shariah tenets, its core attributes – especially its intolerance of other faiths and disfavored populations and its bid for supremacy over all other legal or political systems, there can be no confusion on this score: As the Framers [of our Constitution] fully understood, shariah is an enemy of the United States Constitution. The two are incompatible,” that comes from the National Center for Constitutional Studies. Considering what I just said about Muslim believe, to me that is a declaration that it is the Muslim’s who mimic the ideology of Hitler. Hitler’s Nazis were only 7% of the population and look at what they were able to do. O and his crony business buddies were sneaking them in, in unlimited numbers, circumventing the Congressional immigration limit, which makes them untraceable. There will be a day of reckoning on that.
        
        The Muslims already here are infiltrating our laws already. They have a five to one birth rate and will in no time out number Americans and vote themselves into office and their cult into our laws. They aren’t even waiting for that in Dearborn, MI, where they have stoned a woman to death, burned another alive, and stoned a group of Christians. Also understand they will not be assimilating, because it is forbidden by their Qu’ran. That makes them an invasion force, colonizing.
        
        Americans need to know what is really happening to their country. This video shows you Dearborn, MI. Pay attention to how Americans were forced out of their neighborhood mall and how it was then taken over. This is not assimilating, it is an invasion colonizing; and it is done through our welfare system. We are paying for all these people to live in America and look how they repay us. Our government is forcing Americans to be accomplices in their own Islamizing.

        This is war. And the EU clowns and leftwing governments continue to paint a rosy picture of millions of Muslim refugees flooding Europe. But the worst is coming. Reality is blowing up in their fleshy faces. Literally.
        
        This is just the beginning.
        
        Why did law enforcement keep this from the people? What other critical war news are they hiding? As one reader points out, there were enough weapons here to equip a division. “Many of the auto rifles look like FN-FALs to me, or Belgian made NATO rifles, .308 caliber. Yellow tipped shells look like heavy mortar shells minus fuzes. A close call. Almost lost Paris. Wonder how many more ammo dumps and factories are operating out there?”
        
        TOOLS OF JIHAD SHOCKING POLICE PICTURES REVEAL 10,000-WEAPON ARSENAL INCLUDING HOWITZERS, MACHINE GUNS AND GRENADES INTENDED FOR THE HANDS OF TERRORISTS IN EUROPE
        
        Police found the stash in Spain back in January but have only now released the terrifying images
        
        By Danny Collins, The Sun, 15th March 2017:
        
        POLICE last night revealed an arsenal of more than 10,000 weapons destined for the hands of terrorists and organised gangs around Europe.
        
        A continent-wide operation stopped weapons including anti-aircraft guns, howitzers and grenades falling into the hands of extremists in France, Spain and Belgium.
        
        Some were previously described as being powerful enough to “bring down an aircraft”.

        I agree, but our government for at least the last 20 years, but most likely a lot more, are determined to populate our country with them. They KNOW who these people are and what they do! I’m not sure if Trump is familiar with what they are or not. If not he should be informed of their behavior historically, because they haven’t changed in at least 6,000 years. They were somewhat subdued for a while, but they have been released to do it again and the left is determined to turn them loose on us in the U.S.A!

    France is an example of what?

      France is overrun with muslims and now they have voted another one of these evil beings in their government. At lease that is what I believe.
      - socialsavvy
        
        I can only tell you what the relatives and the French news say. Macron had been with the socialist party at one point. He had worked with the Rothschild bank. He had been in the Holland government. Very successful as a very young man. The Socialist Party was not please with Marcon, as he did not completely agree with their philosophy. Someone recently was accusing him of being communist. He is not. He is independent. Furthermore, there is a Communist Party in France whose candidate ran against Marcon. Americans are not knowledgeable of the French government. Are the Muslims over running the French government? No. There are neighborhoods in Paris that have Arab youth who have given lots of problems destroying property. The terrorist attacks so far have come from French citizens, being Muslim is obvious. They have been included in those who have been convinced by ISIS to turn against their own country. No excuse. The French intelligence and police have broken up a considerable number of terrorist cells, or single terrorists planning attacks. It is unimaginable how this effort against terrorists is a constant effort in France and other nations in Europe. It is really is serious, but Macron is not evil, not communist, not Muslim sympathizer. He will likely be as good as Holland. He is a brilliant economist. One thing about it when you go to vote in the primary election, you have a big group to choose from. The variety is great. Now and then I get the suggestion that if I like it so much why don’t I go live there. Well, I like France, but I love America. Moving to a foreign country is pretty serious when you are old, (I don’t like to say that part), the cost, is astronomical if you take very much. We have considered living there 6 months and in the US 6 mos. At this time visiting is good. France is no different than any other democratic-republic, freedom is considered precious. Le Penn was supported by Putin. I don’t think that the French consider the communist very freedom loving. She got money from Russia for her campaign. She was approved or encouraged by Trump. One thing that France has a lot of in their government are people who have been to college of politics. They study everything about government, history and politics that you need to be completely informed regarding the workings of the government. I am not bragging. I have no stake in their government. I just am impressed and hope that we have a greater number of trained politicians.

They have the law, and know it completely. Some of the people in the French Congress are not Political Scientists but many are. Many PS’s are officials in the government.

While they are free to have their life without their kids, they are likewise teaching them to Hate America. We don’t need for our money supporting their children. What do you think?

  I don’t get this whole bathroom issue. You go into a bathroom, you fgo into a private stall, do what you came to do and leave. What difference does it make if it’s men or women? As I recall, the only problems we have are with Congressmen using airport rest rooms to have sex with members of the same sex. May we should just have co-ed bathrooms and call it a day.
  - Richard Bagenstose
    
    and what about the perverts , a man goes into the ladies room and she is alone , what’s to stop him from raping her, you might as well put video cameras in every stall, don’t we have enough problems , that we have to ask for more, just like opioide abuse , your stupid enough to take them then your stupid enough to suffer the consequences ,

      Are you saying that women shouldn’t be allowed to go to the restroom because they might get raped?

        men should not be in the ladies room , in stead of going to the strip club just go into the ladies room , get to see the same things
  - albany le
    
    I think the problem is that our children are no longer safe in a public bathroom. I will escort any child or mine or one I am watching until they are at least 13 years old and they know how to protect themselves.
    - No name nut case
      
      I think they should be older than 13! A 13 year old can’t defend him or herself against a grown man bent on rape or murder or both!
      - albany le
        
        You may well be right I failed to say that any older child I will stand right outside of the door. That way I can hear if there is a problem.
    - No name nut case
      
      A 13 year old girl is still not old enough to protect herself from grown men! Or even teenage boys for that matter!
  - No name nut case
    
    What are you stupid or something? How many perverts do think it would take to molest one woman or little girl in the women’s restroom? How much strength does it take to break the latches on a restroom stall door? There is a reason for NOT having co-ed restrooms!

  The courts and those who conduct business of the people are the defenders of peace, and will up hold justice. Trump’s behavior is suspect. He does his own thing. He says what he says. He doesn’t have the advice of Hillary or Obama. Every tub must sit on it’s own bottom and Trump is one tub who like the rest of us will also have to do so.

it is only wrong if it is against christians. if it is against jews and muslims, then it is ok. that is why you are jerks because you are prejudiced and think your religion is the only religion. it is not., this is not a single religion country. we are not a theocracy where religion rules. the rule of law is supreme.
- richoldsky
  
  And ISLAM is not a religion.
  - Charlie ********
    
    Like to or not, there are 1.7 billion muslims in the world who believe their religion is just as valid as your religion. That represents 23% of the world’s population. It is second to Christianity which has about 2.2 billion followers. Just a mere 500 million difference between the two.
    
    Until the religious fanatics in all religions learn to recognize other religions and live together we will continue to see people killed in the name of some god or another. For years, Christians were persecuted by Romans. Then Christians persecuted Jews and Muslims in the Crusades, killing off those who refused to accept Christianity. Now, fanatical Muslims want to repay the kindness shown to them by Christians hundreds of years ago. And then we have Israel refusing to recognizer Palestinians. They wall them off, refuse to allow trade across the border, won’t let them work and wonder why their is no peace. Isn’t that exactly what Hitler did to the Jews in the ghettos in Eastern Europe? Funny how the group with power always seems to justify their actions even when they constantly remind us to “never forget.”

        Are you proud of the millions of Muslims and Jews slaughtered by Christians in the Middle Ages? Are you proud of the fanatical Christians who bombed abortion clinics and killed doctors? Are you proud that the Catholic church sided with Nazi Germany in its persecution of gypsies, Jews and others in order to preserve their own position of power in that country? Murder is murder and is never acceptable in any religious doctrine. Yet, extremists and radicals in all religions pervert the teachings and justify their heinous actions.

      - Charlie ********
        
        That same persecution exists and always will. One need only look back to the 1970s and 80s to remember the IRA and the fighting that killed thousands of Catholics and Protestants in Ireland and the UK.
        
        In the 1990s the Christian forces in Bosnia-Herzogovenia slaughtered over 100,000 Muslim men and boys in the largest act of Genocide since WWII. Their are still warrants for arrest and war crimes trials in this case of ethnic cleansing.
        
        To this day, israel is persecuting Palestinians, seizing their land, restricting their movements and making it difficult for them to obtain food and humanitarian supplies. Funny a group that cries “never again” can continue to act this way and claim to be in the right.
        
        Do you still think that religions have stopped persecuting those that do not believe the same as they do?

What happened in pasted History is Past History and, today, we can only guess what was in the Hearts of those who we can criticize today. If muslims attacked America tonight I would fight and kill as many of those S.O.B’s that I could. This would allow these enemy to re-enter Hell from which they came. In Nam., many good fighters on both sides died and I do not know where the souls of the dead enemy went but I’ll bet that it was not to Hell with the muslims.
      - Charlie ********
        
        I would stand and fight with you if our country was attacked by any group or country. I know first hand the effects of an attack on our soil as I served at Ground Zero for three weeks following the attacks of 9/11. I lost several friends in the attack on the World Trade Center. I do not hold all muslims responsible for that attack. Those planes were flown by radical extremists. ISIS is killing more Muslims than Christians or any other faith. There are, by far, more moderate Muslims than there are radical terrorists.
        Yes, William, if attacked I, too, will stand shoulder-to-shoulder and fight against our foes as long as we are fighting the enemy and not lashing out in fear at those who are innocent.

You are one big looser charlie but do not worry there will always be some really AMERICAN who will take care of you.
      Nowhere in the Bible does God tell Christians to kill all non-Christians, no matter what you believe. In any incident where a group attacked Gods Laws, yes, whatever was needed to protect Gods Laws was indeed done, however this was only as a last resort.

        It’s difficult to have a discussion when it drops to the level of name calling, but I will try.
        
        God is omniscient and all-powerful. God is the ultimate authority and final judge. When we die, it is God that we answer to.
        
        Our job is to live a good life and go to our eternal reward. It is not our job to tell others how to live their lives.
        
        Killing an abortion doctor is not going to gain favor with the Lord. He gave us free choice. If a woman decides to have an abortion, she answers for that, not to man, but to her maker.
        
        An eye for eye is an archaic holdover from the Old Testament. Capital punishment is not what Jesus was about. It is murder.
        
        Jesus told us to love one another. He he gave us the Beatitudes. He told us to do unto others.
        
        Yet we still think we must be God’s police, judge and jury here on earth. That is not my place, your place or the place of any religious authority. It is a reserved power that belongs to God and God alone.
      - Charlie ********
        
        As to your comment about giving a poor person a statement of charges for health care, let me relate the story of a friend of mine. He was employed as a contractor to a government agency and therefor did not qualify for nor could he afford health insurance. Being young, he was not all that concerned. However, in his mid 30s he was hospitalized for several months including ER, ICU, medical ward and rehab facility. All this was due to a brain aneurism. The hospitals involved, every doctor, specialist and consultant that ever talked to him or his family all sent him bills. There was no way he could afford this. he explained his situation. They sued, he lost his job, his credit rating and his home. As a result of the damage done by the aneurism, he was left unable to work, applied for Social Security Disability and was denied for 6 years until finally being approved. In the meantime, he was forced to live out of a tent in a city park. A friend offered to give him a room to stay in his basement. When he notified the social service agency as he was required to do, they told him if he moved into the basement he would lose his food stamps because the basement was across state lines. He would need to re-apply and start all over to try and qualify for benefits in the new jurisdiction.
        
        There is no excuse for anyone in America to ever be put in a situation like this. No one ever thinks it will happen to them. I have seen this first hand and I am ashamed at the policies in place and treatment he and many like him receive.
        
        As you said, William, there were Americans that stepped up to care for him. I and several of my colleagues sent him monthly stipends as did many of his friends to help him and his service dog survive until he was finally approved for disability. However, six years is a long time for someone to have to live in limbo. There should never have been an issue with health care costs bankrupting him. He should not have lost his house. He should not have been forced to live in a tent in a city park. He should not have been told he would lose his meager food stamp allotment if he moved from the tent to a basement. But all of it happened in America. Makes you proud of our health care system, doesn’t it?

        No such thing as “free lunch” – especially in medical care. Someone always pays – in one way or another. Comes out of all our pocket books. Notice all the prescription drug advertisements on TV? Notice all the possible side effects they list? Why spend so much money on ads – just lower your cost for the drugs. Too many deaths caused by prescription meds. It is all nutz!!!! We are all better off being holistic in most cases. Note the cause of deaths – first three – cancer, heart disease and medical error.

        That’s your personal choice. No one said you have to be a Christian. If you don’t want to be a Christian, I don’t care. It doesn’t bother me in the least. I have friends who are Christian, and I have friends who aren’t. I have relatives who are, and relatives who aren’t. I get along with all of them. (Judging from the things you say on this blog, I have a feeling you can’t say the same.) There are many churches which claim to be Christian, and granted some are sort of out in the sticks in what they believe. My “other half” wasn’t Christian when we met and it was basically because of a misconception in what Christianity really is.
        You really do seem to have a chip on your shoulder and like to pick fights. The only thing that that sort of personality gains is enemies. I don’t understand why anyone would want to do that, but to each their own. Or, maybe you are just trying to pick a fight because you are very immature.

        I don’t really care whether you are or aren’t. My “issue” is with supposed Christians who abuse other religions, who feel they are holier than thou – my interpretation of Christianity was peace, love and forgiveness. So how can they bemoan other religions when they know little about them – I know not of a religion that preaches hate. Obviously these people are in a new brand of church – the Church of the White Red-necked Nazi. Not very Christian!

    Our Country was founded on religious principles. That should be taught in history class if they don’t rewrite it. It makes for a more orderly society to learn these values – just like having traffic lights in busy cities. Rules and regulations make sense. Anything goes does not…like changing the meaning of marriage – or saying it is okay to have sex on your first teenage date if you want to and not teaching the benefits of morality. Humans gain self respect when they lead a principled life. One cannot be lukewarm in these areas or you end up with a family of snowflakes.

  Don’t think I heard ANYONE say that it was ok to discriminate against Muslims or Jews either. We’ve been fighting against discrimination of Jews since I was little, and I’m 71 years old! I don’t know where you Snowflakes are getting these ideas. The Order said NO discrimination of ANY religion, or can’t you read?
- Estell Newton
  
  You are twisting things around again like a true dummycrat. True Christians do NOT discriminate. We do however want our country free of terrorists and many of the muslims that are here are on the terrorist list and I know that to be a fact.
  - Charlie ********
    
    I agree that true Christians do not discriminate. The problem is you can’t find many TRUE Christians anymore. Take for example the County Clerk in Kentucky who refused to issue marriage licenses to same sex couples. She claimed to be doing it because her Christian values objected. What happened to the Christian values of Love Thy Neighbor, Turn the Other Cheek, Do unto Others? Jesus said Too many these days cherry pick and only adhere to the values they like. How many are against abortion yet they support the death penalty? Again, cherry picking what they like and ignoring the rest.

    Well, William. You have just described over 90% of those who believe in Islam. It is the extreme minority of Muslims who are most visible and have allowed too many to form an opinion of the entire faith based upon their actions.

  Strange how lawyers continue to get “to” and “from” mixed up. Then there are the liberal judges that back them up.
  - socialsavvy
    
    I thought it was “freedom ‘of’ religion”. As far as from, that makes no difference. This could be interpreted as “freedom of the choice of religion” The freedom of worshipping one faith or freedom to not worship. Did you know that some of the writers of the Constitution were atheists? Do you think the “of” or the “from” was an issue. One was freed to do as he or she wished regarding worshipping their choice of a God. Or they were freed to study some other theory. And I bet they were freed to skip the whole issue if they liked. God doesn’t want us to try to force our faith on anyone. He does the choosing, so try not to get so up tight. It is bad on your blood pressure.
    - No name nut case
      
      I agree with what you said, but I don’t agree that God chooses who will be saved. That goes against the majority of scripture. God saves whomever asks Him to save them. He is a gentleman and doesn’t interfere with man’s choice to believe or not.
      - socialsavvy
        
        Romans 8:28-31, states that God forknows who will be saved. I realize that has to do with predestination. At the same time, it also does not mean (I’d believe) that God has made all choices before the beginning of time just because he knows all. It is a little confusing, but I agree with you on who God saves. He wants to be asked, He wants to give forgiveness of disbelief, wants His love returned for His Gift Jesus.
        Where I said, God does the choosing…..I likely was thinking in terms of the scripture in Romans. The opportunity for many to choose is available, the Holy Spirit deals with the individual. So it is a person’s choice. God guides us on the road the Christian takes.
        
        It is deep isn’t it. But one can go back to the words of Jesus the Christ and be sure of what to believe.
      - No name nut case
        
        Forknowlege has nothing to do with predestination. It has to do with God’s knowledge of all things. He knows, but He doesn’t interfere or cause one to accept His gift to us. It has to be our own choice. That way no one can say that they saved themselves through their own “good deeds.” Scripture says, “They are all gone out of the way, they are together
        become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no not one.” Rom.3:12
      - socialsavvy
        
        I totally agree. This what I was taught, and what I believe. At this point in my life my favorite thing is to talk with the Lord. Sounds crazy to some but prayer is communication, and answers are in the Scripture when you need them and sometimes you just know what to do because it is right. I like to say “it is whom you trust and for what and how”. Many think people are crazy when they speak of the redemptive power of the blood of Christ and God’s redemptive gift and sacrifice in our place. It is easy for me to care about people and their needs. I am just made that way and am not sorry for it.
- Charlie ********
  
  Freedom OF religion means you have a choice. That includes the freedom to practice no religion if that is one’s choice.

If you can allow yourself, you will eventually see what is Trumps problems and why he does the things he does. Having studied Human Behavior and watched and listened to Trump speak I have grave doubts that he can change any of his negative behavior. His negative behavior is his lying. It doesn’t seem to be the media or Hillary who fired Comey. Honorable people will get to the bottom of the Russian thing.

I’m all for religious freedom, the right to worship when you want how you want but most churches are political organizations using religion as a cover for their political activities and they should NOT be tax free. Churches own property and businesses that should NOT be tax exempt.

Ever since 1776 when churches were removed from a voice in government they have been trying to get back in but there was a reason for the separation of church and state and it still holds true today. Churches today are heavily involved in politics and that is alluded to right in this article.

No there should be no religious discrimination, but churches should NOT be allowed to lobby, campaign, donate or be involved in politics in any way. Those that do should lose their tax exempt status!
- ChuckW
  
  Martin Luther King, Jr. said “The church is neither the master nor the slave of the state, but the conscience.” The church has a responsibility to speak out concerning the state. The separation of church and state means the state cannot interfere with the church. There is freedom of speech for all, but not of one to control the other.
- Marjorie Lee Peterson
  
  I haven’t heard a word about politics from my church in ages. I wish they WOULD come out against certain things, but they don’t. They aren’t even talked about. I can’t find a church anymore that actively tries to save souls during a service or preaches about what actually happens to souls who aren’t saved. I miss that, and it’s a disservice to anyone who comes there looking for answers.

        Charlie, the Bible is very clear that it is faith (belief without proof) that pleases God. It is the most difficult thing in the world for some people. But the Bible says that one has to believe like a child. Children don’t require proof of every single thing they hear someone say, they just believe it. That is what God wants. Some can, some just can’t, but one has to know what He said before they know if they believe Him or not. Try reading Romans through Philemon in the Bible. If you have a problem with understanding it, give me a shout out and I’ll help you.
      - socialsavvy
        
        Charlie: Right on about oxygen and gravity. No one has seen God and lived. except when Jesus was on earth, so the reference to God, is God the Father. I am a Christian believer but can understand and believe that the world evolved. I have no problem with that. I have my reasons. But I don’t try to convert people who have other beliefs. That is a personal matter that has to be settle between the individual and God. If he has no God, that is his personal decision. How are you politically right now. Interesting isn’t it .

The mighty Roman empire self-destructed within, before outsiders conquered it. Presently, illegitimate “non-discrimination” laws are more of a threat to Liberty in this country than radical Islamists and other world powers. Unlike Liberty, discrimination is NOT a constitutional principle, though it is being treated as such. In fact, we as individuals (persons and entities such as a business) have a constitutional right TO discriminate – it’s called Liberty. Because our government was formed on the basis that Liberty is a gift of God (not man, not government), and the Constitution states that it was ordained and established “to secure the blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our posterity ….”, government may not deny Liberty to anyone, but must preserve “Liberty … for all.”
The 1964 Civil Rights Law rightfully gave Black People the individual Liberty that government (via Jim Crow, segregation laws, etc.) had denied them. Black people had suffered governmental/societal discrimination (not just individual discrimination); they were not at Liberty to choose what water fountain, restroom, restaurant, school, etc. they could use. Horribly, subsequent legislation illegitimately focused on “protecting people from discrimination”, rather than protecting Individual Liberty. There is no “right” to be protected from discrimination. Example: I walk into a restaurant and the owner says “Sorry, we don’t serve old guys like you.”. The owner is rightfully exercising his Individual Liberty. As long as I can readily be served at another restaurant, government has no legitimate authority to compel him to serve me or give me legal grounds to sue – NONE. It is “Liberty for all” that must be protected – not people protected from individual discrimination (which does not deny Liberty). Now we are witnessing the horrendous consequences of treating discrimination as a constitutional principle: lawsuits and government punishing people for rightfully exercising their individual Liberty, the Constitutional freedoms of Speech, Assembly, Religion/conscience being denied and even punished and silenced in order to unconstitutionally “protect people from discrimination”, which now for all practical purposes equates to whatever decisions the “protected” group(s) don’t like. This is the imposition of tyranny on this country, rather than preserving Individual Liberty. It must STOP. Join me in convincing legislators to pass a “Liberty Preservation Act” that properly refocuses on Liberty for All and states clearly that government may NOT legislate at all against merely individual discrimination. They must be evidence of governmental/societal discrimination before government can address discrimination.

  Chuck, I was born and grew up in Birmingham, AL. There was only one party, the Democrats. There was a primary election to choose between candidates but they were all Democrats. No matter who was elected, they would be a Democrat except in Presidential elections. The Democrats in Alabama were the ones that held all the offices and passed the Jim Crow laws. Segregation was strictly enforced in Birmingham by Bull Connor. He also headed the Democratic Party. The people who were against segregation and all the other Jim Crow laws had no way of electing people that could repeal them until the Republicans became established. Then Alabama became a Republican state.
  - ChuckW
    
    Thanks for sharing. I remember seeing Bull Connor on the news, and the dogs and fire hoses.
    Just as segregation laws denied Liberty to Black people back then, and with the KKK aiming to impose “white supremacy” on this country, so today, the radical homosexual community (the Human Rights Campaign and their ilk) are trying to impose a radical sexual ideology on this country via illegitimate “non-discrimination” laws protecting Sexual Orientation, Gender Idenity (SOGI), etc. These are, in fact, legalization of sexual immorality. I speak from experience, having dealt with same-sex attraction, but also making God’s word my life’s foundation. Now I know real freedom in Christ. It must break God’s heart to see so many being sexually enslaved today. We simply cannot allow this evil attempt to intimidate and silence those who follow Jesus by legalizing sexual immorality.

Something tells me in the long run this might hurt more than help. Its like allowing the church back in schools. You do that and the money in the middle east will control your schools. Access islam will become required. They will win as for us its about religion, for them its about the 3rd jihad and controlling America. The Catholic church might have allot of money but they are not to be trusted. The other christian churches would never be able to supply enough money to fight OPEC and our schools will be dominated in islam
- Marjorie Lee Peterson
  
  When the Christian religion was allowed in schools, we didn’t have children rioting in the streets and attacking other kids. The worst thing ever happening in my school when I was young was someone getting caught smoking in the restroom! Now look what happens! Taking Christ OUT of our schools was the worst thing we ever did!

    If you allow church in school you invite ISLAM into your school. In the 80’s I remember the battle, and church on sunday school on monday was best. We are fighting now to stop ACCESS ISLAM from infecting our schools. If you allow religion back in school they WIN! and Christianity will lose. The school cant control where your child attends church on sunday. If you research what happened to Lebanon once 82% christian and now 27% christian you will understand secular govt protects us. If you allow religion back in school then the Muslim Brotherhood WINS we lose

    Schools only need to add Citizen classes – the constitution – being a good citizen. Obey the laws, respect others rights.
    
    If you allow Christianity back in school then you must allow all religions in school. The Saudis agree with you and they will infest our youth with their hitler plan

  The fact that our country was founded on Christian principles, these should be taught in schools. Just look at where our society is today – after removing God from almost everything.

  - Charlie ********
    
    This country was founded as a nation wherein all people would be free to practice any religion or no religion. While Christian values may have been an influence, the founding fathers made it clear that we were not a Christian nation. They went out of their way to make this point.
    
    “The government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion.”
    —John Adams
    
    “The day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus by the Supreme Being in the womb of a virgin, will be classed with the fable of the generation of Minerva in the brain of Jupiter. … But we may hope that the dawn of reason and freedom of thought in these United States will do away with all this artificial scaffolding….”
    – Thomas Jefferson
    
    In constructing the Constitution, they went out of their way to ensure no reference to God or Christianity. The only reference to religion, found in Article VI, is a negative one: “[N]o religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.” And of course we have the First Amendment, which states that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.”
    
    No where in the Constitution is there any reference to God or Christianity being important to the system of law they put forth.
    
    The familiar “In God We Trust” was unknown until it first appeared on coins during the Civil War. Our Pledge of Allegiance made no reference to religion until “under God” was inserted by President Eisenhower in 1954.
    
    Again, all of this is part of history. Sadly, too many do not know the history, refuse to believe it or just prefer have it suit their needs. Unfortunately, when we allow people to home school, they pass on their own misinterpretations and misconceptions to the next generation. That is brainwashing, plain and simple.

It is ironic that that it should be called a “War on Religion” when it is in fact a war on Christianity only.
It is also a fact that it is a war against Christ and the moral implications of the doctrinal teachings
of Christianity.
It requires honesty and integrity that the Liberals and Progressives do not and will not submit to.
They have established their own religion which is in conformity to Anti-Christ.

Americans, Islam is trying to take over the world. Christians cannot let this happen. Hillary Clinton, she and Obama are in love with the Muslims and are crazy people that want to destroy America. Americans see what the Radical Islamic Terrorist are teaching in the Muslim Islamic Mosques, then they are sent to become radicalized and come back to kill Americans, Jews, Christians and non-Islamic folks. This tells the story and this is not a religion, instead it is a cult and taking
over the world. Americans need to close all of the Mosques and deport all of the Muslims that practice the Sharia Law, get them out of America. Americans
need to understand that Islam is not a peaceful religion and they are out to change Americas Constitution, laws, rules, regulations and try and take over the world. Obama and Hillary Clinton want to allow thousands more into the USA
which will cause more of these barbaric savages in our country and more people killed. Read below what these animals believe, ideology and why they want to kill Americans and non-Islamic people.

From the Qur’an:

65:4 You can rape, marry divorce pre-pubescent girls.

4:3, 4:24, 33:50, 79:29-30 You can enslave for sex and work.

4:34 You can beat women.

24:4 You will need 4 Muslim male witnesses to prove rape

9:111 You will kill non-Muslims to receive 72 virgins in heaven

2:217, 4:89 You will kill anyone who leaves Islam

8:12, 47:4 You will behead non-Muslims

9:5 You will kill and be killed for Allah (verse of the sword)

8:12, 8:60 You will terrorize non-Muslims

9:29 Kill Jews and Christians if they do not convert or pay Jizya tax

chapter 8 (booty/spoils of war) Steal from non-Muslims

8:12, 47:4 Crucify and amputate non-Muslims

3:54, 9:3, 16:106, 40:28, 2:225 Lie to strengthen Islam (Taqiyya deception)

9:111 Lo! Allah hath bought from the believers their lives and their wealth
because the Garden will be theirs: they shall fight in the way of Allah and
shall slay and be slain.

Islam = Terrorism?
Lamar Carnes

I wholeheartedly agree with the Presidents ruling and it only is keeping the Bill of Rights laws which we now should be protected by! However, I do have one slight point that must be considered in this entire matter. When a religious practice includes and promotes the over throw of the Federal U.S.A. Government and its Constitution and Bill of Rights that movement or that person must be held in contempt of the laws of our Government and certain penalties must be exercised by the Federal Government against such. That is, if a process is enacted which would be construed illegal based on actions put in place to bring harm or activities to over throw our Government or forbid the free religious expression of others, the person, group and movement must be outlawed and also punished for their activities according to the level they have engaged in to carry out their views. One major group which is already doing this and should be held accountable in the USA is the Islamic Muslim movement – all sects and cults involved. They have in print, in speech and in conduct broken most of the law which is stipulated in the Constitution and Bill of Rights for the USA citizens. This needs to be addressed and stood by this very moment and not let go by the way side for they are working day and night to install Sharia law here in the US and also are breaking the law by their actions toward their own families and peoples. Stop this now or we shall pay a huge price in the future.

I am a Christian, but must say ***NO!*** to albany le’s comment: America is NOT
Christian. America makes no religion its official religion and imposes
no creed on anyone. It’s because of people like you albany le (well intentioned
you may be) that Christians are being persecuted everywhere, including
America, because atheists and the Godless, and radical Muslims, etc.,
believe they must turn everyone into whatever they want or what they
believe or do not believe in.

The king, government or anyone else
telling people what they should believe and worship is what the pioneers
ran away from when they started immigrating to the Americas and what
ultimately brought about independence to this country.

Anyone,
anyone at all who tries to impose their beliefs, religious or otherwise
on others, and subjugate them, turn them into slaves, coerce them into
submission, is not welcome in America and must either change their
attitude and ideas and respect the fact that ALL of God’s creatures are
created equal, and entitled to Life, Liberty, Property and the Pursuit
of Happiness, or leave. If they cannot accept that, then they must go
back to wherever they came from. America is for the brave and the free
and must remain so.

The limits of your beliefs and freedom stop
only where they start limiting the beliefs and freedoms of your fellow
Americans, citizens, legal residents of this or any other country. So,
try to force me, or anyone else, to believe against what I believe in
and peacefully practice, and you will see how hard I will push back and
reclaim my God given rights! Extremism and fanaticism of any kind must
be nipped in the bud as soon as they start raising their ugly heads! I
will protect Life, Liberty, Property and my right and others’ right to
the Pursuit of Happiness against any who will try to take these God
given rights away from me, and that includes my neighbor’s rights. That
is why this well written article ends with the words, “Whether you’re a
Christian, a Jew, a Muslim, or an atheist, you will benefit from
Thursday’s executive order. You may not know it yet, but
it’s the
truth.” Try to take these away, and I don’t care who you are or what you
believe in, you become the enemy to all this country should stand for!

the only infringement on religious freedom is in the minds of those who have been stopped from using their religious freedoms perversely to stomp on other peoples religous freedoms.

But, I do not accept that any religion will be Superior to the Constitution of the USA in terms of our legal structure. Anyone wanting to be an American must demonstrate allegiance to the Constitution first, period.

  Unfortunately, too many people have it the other way around and want to twist the Constitution to serve their religious beliefs.

Yes, all religion’s should be free to practice their faith unless it’s insane, homicidal doctrines command it’s followers to exterminate and behead all infidels. I can just see some retarded Islamist in court, after he’s murdered a group of innocent people, claim that Trumps Law gave him permission to practice his religion as his defense. And you can bet, some sick, twisted ACLU Lawyer will use every trick in the book to keep him from getting a just punishment: being put down like the rabid dog the majority of Muslim males become after their indoctrinated into the Koran, Shariah and Jihad.

The first amendment guarantees Americans the right of free speech, so why aren’t we fighting for it? Today I saw a sign I haven’t seen in years:”We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone.” Amen. The sign is near Yuma, Arizona at a parking lot used for shoppers going to Algodones, Mexico. The lot is owned by the Quechan indian tribe of AZ and I applaud them. Free speech has been elevated to the burning of our flag by the idiot savants in our Supreme Court. That’s putting a big foot in your mouth. I don’t see much difference in burning the flag freely and politely saying, “No, I’m sorry but I can’t bake a cake for your gay wedding.” Any law that gives government the power to order citizens to bake cakes is un-constitutional. According to that document itself the anti- discrimination laws are null and void due to the Fact that they infringe on free speech.Yet, they are being enforced by liberal judges who have yet to learn, “Your rights end where mine begin.” Will the sane lawyers please stand up?”

It is clear that the goal of the lop-eared mongrel, his drunken lesbian protege and their phalanx of satanists, socialists and sodomites is the marginalization and then repression of Christianity, as surely as Stalin who dynamited churches, Mao who executed clergy and the various bloodthirsty mohammedan tyrants around the world. In what has been the United States but is slated to be a one-party peoples republic, religion as we know it is to replaced by a state cult of secular humanism, moral relativism and gaian paganism. People will hug trees, men will hug men and womyn will hug womyn while wearing vagina hats, but it will be off to the re-education camp for anyone who thinks differently. We must support President Trump’s executive order and hope that Justice Gorsuch will soon be joined by one and hopefully more justice who is not a marxist or a metrosexual.

VERY COMMON SENSE. THIS IS MORE WHAT OUR FOUNDING FATHERS SAW, NOT A WAR ON RELIGION BUT FREEDOM OF NOT FROM, RELIGION.

The last thing we need is Muslims freer to spread their evil culture. Islam has destroyed far too many countries already. Islam has a core tenant that they must overthrow all governments for Islam. This just allows them loser reigns.
