wow..where to begin with the ignorance of the this statement..yes..they do allow us to practice what ever we want..hence this is not a christian nation..and separation of church in state doesnt mean they wanted us to pray in schools and such..their words have been twisted by people like you..it doesnt mean you can somehow hijack what they said and say what they said was twisted when its very clearly their words..if they ever prayed in school i would have laughed out loud..its a GOVT institution therefore separation of church and state applies to it..keep your religion where it belongs..in your home or church..it does NOT belong on a sports forum..it belongs in the forum called "the strip" where all off topic threads go..keep your religion out of our schools and ill keep my intelligence out of your church..you want to believe in a fairy tale..thats nice..but keep it to yourself and in your church..and the post of freedom scriptures shows how ignorant one is in regards to the bible..ill play the odds on this one..over 10,000 gods have been created by man..ill take my chances that some illiterate goat herder in palestine didnt get it right..
