Mary, It has already been changed. The non-religious groups, supported by some Supreme Court decisions, have taken the entire intent out of context. All the founding fathers intended, was the the government would not be allowed to form national religion, or be controlled by any religion, and force their beliefs upon the people of the nation, as was done in England, Spain, and Italy, at that time.
No where does it say that any religious group is forbidden to worship, discuss, or demonstrate, on public property, which would include schools. Since all religions would be granted the same rights, no bias was being shown. No where does it say that it is improper to wish someone a merry Christmas, happy Hannukah, rocking Kwanzaa, or any other such greetings. No where does it say that a religious group cannot erect a monument, shrine, or nativity scene.
The separation of state, and religion, does not mean that a bunch of malcontents can force any religion to dismantle any of the above. No where does it say that something like the Ten Commandments cannot be displayed. Of course, that stipulation covers all religions, so if one religion can do something, any other can do their version of that thing.
It is obvious that you are a raving, mad, liberal, that is still pissed off at losing the election. Grow up, and get used to it. |
