The First Amendment bans officials from hindering or ADANCING RELIGION. But Congress lets churches keep money by tax exemptions, etc. Congress uses tax money to make jobs in these "interfaith addict & booze treatment centers." They take jobs that should be filled by professionals. God tells them what to do, but most are amateurs, some without finishing high school. It's a religious fake WPA. Atheist taxpayers are cheated by being forced to subsidize this "global interfaith dialogue" The worldwide gab is how to cheat taxpayers out of more money for preachers. Boo Hoo for Patel.. he was a young victim of the kind of prejudice that would not exist if churches didn't always try to shift dollar value of tithes from one bunch of preachers to another. Every religion says non-members are infidels who deserve to go Hell. Obama must be guided by the Constitution. But like all former presidents, he says he prays every day to be guided by God. That means being guided by ignorant men who wrote Scripture, long before the Age of Enlightenment. i want the Interfaith scam taken off budget. I want all who profited from it to be forced to repay every penny of billions of dollars they stole to advance religion.
