People are being killed all over the world in the name of one religion. Are we going to keep pretending this religion's beliefs isn't at odds with our own written law?
If I owned a newspaper it's headline Saturday morning would have read 'Freedom of Religion' with a large picture of all the dead French in the road.
They are not allowing us freedom from their religion, and thus, do not belong in our countries that share this ideal.

Could you source which books you've read on the subject which brought you to this conclusion or is "Fuck you people are stupid" supposed to win this argument for you?

If they so meant to put god in the Constitution, why isn't god mentioned once in it?

I like how you use the word 'liberal' when the term didn't even exist at the time the pilgrims came to America. Our founding fathers started using the term proudly around the time of The Enlightenment upon which gave birth to our nation. Do you think it's coincidence they speak so often of liberty? Our founding fathers were liberals...
These are your conservatives at the time...

If only everyone would.

It looks to me like they left because of religious persecution and decided to make new laws where all religions can be freely practised and the government would not be governed by one religion that can rule over the rest.

Start here. "Fuck you people are stupid" is not an argument, it is an observation.

Could you sum up what is written in it which made you come to your conclusion?

I had no idea the concept of Freedom from Religion was going to hit such a nerve. I should have known, however, with all the right wingers about. I went into this expecting this concept to be widely accepted already.
I'm not sure where you got that I hate the west or Christians from this. Quote me saying something like that? Maybe I am simply not remembering.
