The lie of “Separation of Church & State”
The U.S. Supreme Court’s Usurpation of Power
How did it happen that our country became a land where Christian children are forbidden to use the word, “God”, in the public schools; public school students are forbidden to say prayers at football games; and religious speech is banned from the public square? Read on, and I will show you how judges on the supreme Court perverted our Constitution, prohibited the Free Exercise of Religion, and abridged our Freedom of Speech.
We must begin by learning what our Constitution says – and doesn’t say – about “religion” and “speech”. The three branches of federal government: Legislative Branch (Art I), Executive Branch (Art II), and Judicial Branch (Art III), have only the enumerated powers delegated to them in the Constitution. All “legislative” powers granted in the Constitution are vested in Congress (Art I, ¬ß1). This means that no other branch may make law. Since the legislative powers of Congress are enumerated, Congress may make laws only on those specific subjects listed in the Constitution as proper objects of legislation. Since “religion” & “speech” are not among the listed powers, Congress may not make any laws about religion or speech.
Furthermore, the First Amendment to the Constitution says:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech…
What is an “established religion”? I will show you how judges on the supreme Court changed the historical definition of that term so that they could eradicate Christian speech from our public square and eliminate speech they don’t like. We will begin by finding out what “establishment of religion” actually meant when the Constitution was ratified. To do so, we must consult English history, American colonial history, and writings of our Founders.
And now… the rest of the story. …..
