Illustrations thinkers: CHURCH AND STATE SHOULD BE SEPARATED! French revolutionaries: CHURCH AND STATE SHOULD BE SEPARATED! US founding fathers: CHURCH AND STATE SHOULD BE SEPARATED!
Republicans for some reason: Yeah, I’m pretty sure our founding fathers wanted a theocratic dictatorship
**source: trust me bro**How can they get away with being so historically wrong and doing such a revisionism?
Spend 50 years dismantling public education and you, too, can get the rubes to believe whatever the hell you want.
Their base does and thinks whatever they are told, just like in church.

Do you mean enlightenment?
Yes, In spanish is called “La Ilustración” and didn’t realize that there is a different word for it in english.
Interesting, cheers
They don’t think they’re wrong. They just think the people who tried this before didn’t do it right.
I’m no constitutionalist, but I’m pretty sure the part of the 1st Amendment that says “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion” covers this, as a version of the original “nor shall any national religion be established”, but that’s just me.

Ok, take my money.
But but but!
Clearly, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion” means that if somebody wants to establish a national religion, Congress can’t pass laws to stop them! Bwahahah - checkmate athiests!
It’s like arguing with rocks.
I’d call this guy a fucking idiot but he knows exactly what he’s saying. A threat to the republic
Yeah. Of course the founding fathers wanted faith to be a big part of the country.
Faith in the principles of the Constitution.
Like the separation of church and state.
Plus, “misnomer” must mean something like a smart person’s word for “mistake” to the average* person.
*cf: Carlin, G.
A religious fundamentalist spouting his idiotic fundamentalism that has, surprise-surprise, no basis in fact.
No it isn’t. Fuck.
