The Trump administration has taken aim at separation of church and state, receiving a draft report from the Presidential Religious Liberty Commission that essentially says separation of church and state is in legal error.
Most religions have a creation story. Which one does the government in Washington favor?
The Declaration of Independence: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator — Which creator? The Judeo-Christian creator or the Indian, Hindu or Muslim creator? — with certain unalienable Rights.
First Amendment: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. Free speech and freedom of the press are also included in the First Amendment.
