I am so sick and tired of hearing the term "seperation of church and state". It is a set of words that many people think is in our founding documents. Sadly most people don't bother reading writings by our founding fathers, instead turning to mind numbing sensless books about things that titilate them. If people would only educate themselves a little they would see that the term seperation of church and state and the way it has been used was never the intention of our founding fathers. I wish I had the time and the money to get this debate out in the open. Maybe with Bush having another 4 years it will.

This is exactly why the evangelicals got out and voted, and yet the pundits and Libs still don't get it. They keep saying it was the gay marraige issue that brought them out. Well, I say that yes the gay marraige was a significant part of it. But, gay marraige was, I believe, the line in the sand where people said, enough is enough. We've been quietly sitting back watching the "seperation of church and state" being wrongfully applied everywhere the commie secularist feel they can make it apply. This is precisely why we cannot let more liberal activist judges onto anymore benches.

Which is exactly where the phrase comes from.

"Sadly most people don't bother reading writings by our founding fathers....
