1st Amendment: Issue is government endorsement

Does that mean that the government

promotes atheism? No! The government cannot promote or prohibit atheism

either! Besides, I've never heard a government representative promote

atheism, and I doubt that I ever will. Remember: the key is for the government

to be religiously neutral.

It appears to me that Mr. Mrosek

wants the U.S. government to force religion on its citizens. (And of course,

it is his particular brand of religion that he wants promoted.) I am thankful

that the Constitution prevents this from happening! I'll get my religion

from a church of my choice. I don't want the government forcing it

on me!

Mrosek is quick to blame the

"problem" on atheists. Then, he proposes to change the First

Amendment to "fix" the problem. So, in actuality, the "problem"

was caused by the Founding Fathers!

I've had enough of this

baloney. The Constitution is fine just like it is. If Mr. Mrosek wants

government promotion of religion, he should move to Iran or Afghanistan.

(Of course, the religious police may not like his particular form of religion.)
