OK, I'm going to explain this to you , your wife, & Rose one time & one time only. The Freedom of Religion is one of the most basic of all human rights in this nation & even predates the United States! The Iroquois Constitution 99. The rites and festivals of each nation shall remain undisturbed and shall continue as before because they were given by the people of old times as useful and necessary for the good of men. The Virginia Declaration of Rights -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- June 12, 1776 XVI That religion, or the duty which we owe to our Creator and the manner of discharging it, can be directed by reason and conviction, not by force or violence; and therefore, all men are equally entitled to the free exercise of religion, according to the dictates of conscience; and that it is the mutual duty of all to practice Christian forbearance, love, and charity towards each other. THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Bill of Rights Article [I.] Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
