It’s as if the first people coming here were fleeing due to religious persecution. It’s as if they came here (colonized) to get freedom of religion 😱(I’m pro separation of church and state as a former Christian lol)

No but you don’t get it, the founding fathers were Christian and therefore separation of church and state doesn’t apply to Christianity /s

Oops I misread this as being pointed at Christianity instead of just all religion. Still applies to one group of people though

Well I mean it’s not overhauling the government if it’s written into the foundation. Look up original intent by David Barton

If you can prove that your religion is real and everyone else is lying then it can become part of the government. Till then? Keep your fucking beliefs out of my and everyone elses rights and don’t push it down everyone else’s throats

I was being sarcastic lol, I think it’s fucking horrendous that they think they can do this just because the founding fathers were Christian

gen thought it was a real comment until the tone indicator. I’ve seen people proudly call themselves nationalists “since it means [they] love [their] nation” (😭) so this seems like a tame but genuine bad take in comparison
