Separation of Church and State?
"Political Correctness" & Secular Humanism
"...who changed the truth of God into a lie..." Romans 1:25
"Separation," The Big Lie. There is no such law! This phrase does not appear in ANY founding document. It is not in the Constitution of the United States. It is in the 'Constitution' of the former Soviet Union (Article 124 of the USSR Constitution - 1922-1991).
Conveniently ignoring the opening paragraph of America's first official document and falsely claiming that the Constitution promoted a "wall of separation."
"Liberals claim to want to give a hearing to other views, but then are shocked and offended to discover that there are other views." --commentator, author and founder of National Review William F. Buckley Jr. (1925-2008)
Appointed to the Supreme Court by James Madison, the person who introduced the First Amendment, Justice Joseph Story commented on it in his Familiar Exposition of the Constitution of the United States, 1840: "At the time of the adoption...of the Amendment...the general, if not the universal, sentiment in America was, that Christianity ought to receive encouragement from the State." Justice Story continued: "The real object of the First Amendment was not to countenance, much less to advance Mohammedanism, or Judaism, or infidelity, by prostrating Christianity, but to exclude all rivalry among Christian sects."

S.F. Mayor Blasts Church Support for Gay Marriage Ban Nov 01, 2008 -San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom is blasting church support for Proposition 8, which would amend California's constitution to recognize only marriage between a man and a woman. Newsom says same-sex marriages that are now legal in California are civil rather than religious ceremonies, and suggests that churches seeking to ban them are violating separation of church and state. But the Rev. Jim Garlow, who's leading Christian efforts to pass Proposition 8, says churches have a right to make their voices heard on what they view as "a moral, Biblical and spiritual issue." Garlow says tens of thousands of Christians who've been fasting and praying for weeks will gather Saturday in San Diego's Qualcomm Stadium in support of traditional marriage.
President Calvin Coolidge warned his countrymen of a secular liberal humanistic politically correct plan to undermine these United States of America as outlined and covered in detail in the above pages.
American Minute for September 21st: On SEPTEMBER 21, 1924, America's 30th President, Calvin Coolidge, addressed the Holy Name Society in Washington, D.C., saying: "The worst evil that could be inflicted upon the youth of the land would be to leave them without restraint and completely at the mercy of their own uncontrolled inclinations. Under such conditions education would be impossible, and all orderly development intellectually or morally would be hopeless." Calvin Coolidge continued: "The Declaration of Independence...claims...the ultimate source of authority by stating...they were... 'appealing to the Supreme Judge of the World for the rectitude of' their 'intentions.'...The foundations of our independence and our Government rests upon basic religious convictions. Back of the authority of our laws is the authority of the Supreme Judge of the World, to whom we still appeal." President Calvin Coolidge concluded: "It seems to me perfectly plain that the authority of law, the right to equality, liberty and property, under American institutions, have for their foundation reverence for God. If we could imagine that to be swept away, these institutions of our American government could not long survive."

the Author of the Constitution, James Madison said:
Ben Franklin -
1787 pamphlet to Europeans - "Information to those who would remove (or move) to America": "To this may be
truly added, that serious Religion under its various Denominations, is not only
tolerated, but respected and practised. Atheism is unknown there, Infidelity
rare & secret, so that Persons may live to a great Age in that Country without
having their Piety shock'd by meeting with either an Atheist or an Infidel. And
the Divine Being seems to have manifested his Approbation of the mutual
Forbearance and Kindness with which the different Sects treat each other, by the
remarkable Prosperity with which he has been pleased to favour the whole
Country."
"It is impossible for the man of pious reflection
not to perceive in it [the Constitution] a finger of that Almighty hand which
has been so frequently and signally extended to our relief in the critical
stages of the revolution." (Federalist No. 37, 11 January 1788) Reference: Madison, Federalist No. 37
(230-31)
“On the distinctive principles of the Government...of the U. States, the
best guides are to be found in...The Declaration of Independence, as the
fundamental Act of Union of these States.” Writing to
Thomas Jefferson in the year of the
Declaration’s 50th anniversary, he
wrote of its supremacy over our nation’s Constitution
"Before any
man can be considered as a member of Civilized Society, he must first be
considered as a subject of the Governor of the Universe."
As President, June 20, 1785
In the three years of the War,
President Madison, who had introduced the First Amendment in the First
Session of Congress, issued Proclamations of Public Humiliation and Prayer in
1812 and 1813, followed by a Proclamation of Public Fasting in 1814, in which he
stated: "in the present time of public calamity and war a day may
be...observed by the people of the United States as a day of public humiliation
and fasting and of prayer to Almighty God." After the War, in 1815, James
Madison proclaimed a National Day of Thanksgiving to the "Divine Author of
Every Good and Perfect Gift."

"Independent of its connection with human destiny hereafter, the fate of republican government is indissolubly bound up with the fate of the Christian religion, and a people who reject its holy faith will find themselves the slaves of their own evil passions and of arbitrary power." Lewis Cass, A Brigadier-General in the War of 1812, Cass was Governor of the Michigan Territory where he made Indian treaties, organized townships and built roads. Appointed Secretary of War by President Andrew Jackson, Lewis Cass was a Senator, Secretary of State for President James Buchanan and the 1848 Democrat Presidential Candidate. The State of Michigan placed his statue in the U.S. Capitol's Statuary Hall. American Minute
Note and challenge to secular humanist:
See
Theocracy? before
inadequately and falsely dismissing these pages as promoting theocracy. Numerous blog
discussions and commentaries have weakly dismissed the HISTORY presented here by
simply claiming EarsToHear.net is
promoting a theocracy which is a lame excuse used to escape and avoid answering
this challenge: What new and improved wisdom do secular
liberal humanists use to
justify violating "the Laws of Nature and of
Nature's God," which was the foundation of America's Founders?
Congressmen Waffle on Dr. King's 'Moral Law' View (CNSnews.com) In his famous 1963 "Letter from Birmingham Jail," the late Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., told fellow pastors and the world that valid laws are those that reflect God's law or moral code, and unjust laws, which do not reflect God's law, should not be obeyed. "I would agree with St. Augustine that an 'unjust law is no law at all,'" wrote King. "Now what is the difference between the two? A just law is a man-made code that squares with the moral law or the law of God. An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with the moral law. To put it in terms of St. Thomas Aquinas: An unjust law is a human law that is not rooted in eternal law and natural law." On the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Dr. King, Cybercast News Service asked several members of Congress if they agreed with his view that man's laws must comport with the laws of God. Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.), the 2004 Democratic presidential nominee, said the idea King expressed was "the fundamental notion of civil disobedience." "Any individual has to make their judgment about those things - and suffer consequences according to the civil laws of the community, too," said Kerry. "That's why it's called civil disobedience." (Listen to Audio) - Kerry said he thought King's letter was "a remarkably eloquent and important document." But when asked whether there is a moral basis for not obeying laws that don't comport with God's law, Kerry suggested that morality is relative. "It doesn't make it legitimate," Kerry said, "but there can be a moral basis. Individuals have different determinations of what's moral and what isn't." Kerry agreed that some people would say that laws creating same-sex marriage don't reflect God's law, are immoral and, therefore, unjust. "Some would - and they have a right to make their decision," said Kerry. "Everybody has a right to make their decision about all laws. Our Founding Fathers essentially did that, too."
As a deeply disturbed constituent of Senator's Kennedy and Kerry, and Representative John Olver, I have repeatedly asked all three to enlighten me as to their foundation, their basis for determining the boundaries of how civil, "unalienable Rights" are to be "entitled." what new and improved wisdom do they proclaim which supersedes that of America's Founding Document, where the boundaries for how "Rights" are to be "entitled" are if they do not violate "the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God." I have yet to receive a response that defines their secular humanistic liberal foundation or basis of their "politically correct" definition of morality if not that of the Holy Scriptures, from which America's founders based our founding Document, the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, regardless any all the false claims otherwise based upon facts, writings, and warnings of our founders.
"Separation," The Big Lie. There is no such law! This phrase does not appear in ANY founding document. It is not in the Constitution of the United States. It is in the 'Constitution' of the former Soviet Union (Article 124 of the USSR Constitution - 1922-1991). How this lie has allowed moral corruption to permeate all social aspects of America. Learn the true origin and intent of this phrase from Thomas Jefferson's letter to the Danbury Baptists. Learn the Liberal Agenda to outlaw Christianity, destroy the traditional family, teach "sustainable development over America's Christian Heritage, and we're well on the way to a socialist nanny state. See how Thomas Jefferson himself blatantly "violated" his own "separation of church and state."
"The vile person shall be no more called liberal, nor the churl said to be bountiful. For the vile person will speak villainy, and his heart will work iniquity, to practice hypocrisy, and to utter error against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail." Isaiah 32:5-6
"Democracy without God is
man's worship and elevation of himself and his own intelligence or humanism,
where man becomes his own measure for morality, judgment, and justice." Myles
