Would it shock you to know he was writing in 1833, well before the passage of the 14th Amendment, and that his views are a minority view of what the law is??? Look, we can debate back and forth about what the law should be, but not what the law is. (You are entitled to your own opinion, but not your own facts, as someone on these boards keeps noting.)
Well Duh! The 14th amendment did not change the meaning of 1st amendment and did not institute a WALL of SEPARATION. Only liberals, communists, athiest monkey worshippers and other anti-conservative neo-nazi swine believe that FDR's socialist/communist packed court did not change the meaning of the law.
Jesus Christ belongs in the public schools.
