"If a State refused to let religious groups use facilities open to others, then it would demonstrate not neutrality but hostility toward religion. The Establishment Clause does not license government to treat religion and those who teach or practice it … as subversive of American ideals."

Reader comments about this quote:
American ideals are founded upon "sound doctrine" concerning our Liberty and Freedom from oppression. The practice of Threskos religion is always acceptable, the practice of Threskeia religion is the melting pot of individualism.

    The establishment clause is: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof...". The occupying statist theocracy infesting this land has violated the 1st half of the clause, the 2nd half of the clause  the whole of the clause. An immoral progressive religion continues to grow through legislation, court rulings and executive action. And second, other religions are disallowed use or presence within the occupying statist theocracy's immediate influence. Through centralized government of control, religions foreign to the statist theocracy infesting this land as a whole owns and controls through established rule  IRS 508, 501c3, etc.

    You supreme court justices have proved you're not all that bright by making terrorism, disorderly conduct, disturbing the peace a freedom of expression. And for this clause you refer to, those nevertheless who practice religion are subversive to American ideals and its necessity to grow and develop. We have a universe in which to make our acquaintance and living in the world of make believe inhibits that quest.

    The Author of Christianity said: “But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;” (Matthew 5:44). Said principle is absolutely antithetical to the religion of socialism. Socialism is a religion that promotes terrorism, disorderly conduct, disturbing the peace, non-freedom of expression while subverting other American ideals.

    Mike,, Norwalk, once again, living in the world of make believe inhibits the quest. Meaning what we say, saying what we mean is intregal in the quest, as well as making words mean something.
