This is true. However, we are the people that are the first to point out that the concept of "separation of church and state" is not a government doctrine, but was merely mentioned by President Jefferson in a letter to the Danbury Baptist Association. We, therefore, should also not make arguments based upon concepts set forth in other presidential letters, even if they are friendlier to our way of thinking.

What is good for the goose is good for the gander. And, the fact that we are fair in our arguments is what sets FReepers apart from the folks at DU.
