the power of government is to punish. the founders wanted to ensure that no one would be punished by the government for religious reasons, or for holding the 'wrong' religious views.
however, in this backward day, those who want religion separated from government, actually all civil life, END UP PUNISHING CHRISTIANS BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HOLD THE CORRECT RELIGIOUS VIEWS (atheistic, materialistic, humanism).............liars all, who can not know the truth, because the god of this world has blinded them unless they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears and be converted............i'm on a roll.....
bump for later
Please provide one good example of a judicial ruling that permitted the government to punish a Christian for his religious sentiments.
