Santorum: Separation of Church and State Makes Me "Throw Up"

Reader Comments

Back to blog

This comment os for NormB who comented that there is no amendment on church and state.

First off I want to point out idiots like you are the reason our country might go backwards instead forwards.

SO read our first amendment if you can read. But just in case.

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."

-- The First Amendment

I really believe Rick Santorum is a very dangerous polotican. He say's things like our constitutioin makes him throw up. Wow tis guy is anti gay, anti women and now is anti American constitution.

We live in a country that has been able to grow with streets, sewage,electricity,gas, homes ever where and all kinds of churches. All because our fore fathers new that Chursch and state government should be seperate. Look at the eastern countries their fight is only about religion. They have been doing this for 1,000's of years, most of these countries, barely have clean streets, elctricity ETC.. and their governments are crooked. What makes me want to throw up is Rick Santorum's beliefs.

Liberals (democrat socialists, progressives) are so crazy.

There is NO mention of such separation in the Constitution/Bill of Rights OR the Declaration of Independence. The founders would have found such a concept anathema to good government.

The mere mention of this drives leftists further on the ragged edge of deranged.

But make a mild suggestion that maybe the actual wording of the second amendment, the right to keep and bear arms being an INDIVIDUAL right (“the people” are still “the people” in every place we are mentioned, no?), and it is a violation of the constitution’s plain language to “infringe” or alter that fundamental right in any way shape or form, and watch them fall off that ragged edge and go off foaming at the mouth.

As the radio talk show guy Chris Plante is fond of saying, “if it weren‘t for double standards liberals wouldn’t have any standards at all.”

RICK SANTORUM IS NUTS, AND WANTS TO TURN THE COUNTRY INTO A THEOCRACY/PLUTOCRACY...AND THOSE FEW TO RULE OVER UNEDUCATED MASSES!

Before Santorum continues his quest of becoming president, he should read the

Constitution of the United States of America:

Article Six: The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.

The Second Amendment states: ““Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof…”.

Thank you for the wise comments Bruce B.
