As reported here, The National Day of Prayer, honored in the United States for more than a half-century, is unconstitutional, a federal judge in Wisconsin has ruled.
In a 66-page opinion issued Thursday, U.S. District Judge Barbara Crabb said the holiday violates the "establishment clause" of the First Amendment, which creates a separation of church and state.
NO IT DOES NOT! This is one of the most blatant lies of the Progressive Left and it is a shame that every Constitution-supporting American does not shout them down for trying to thrust this upon us.
Here is what the First Amendment says about religion: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free expression thereof.....
The phrase "separation of church and state" does not appear in the Constitution...nowhere! The phrase comes from much later private communication between Thomas Jefferson and a baptist pastor who sought clarification of what the Constitution meant on the subject. In 1947, the Supreme Court institutionalized the phrase in a horrible opinion rendered in the Everson case.
The judge is wrong, the Constitution does not say what she says it says. Someone please send her a copy of the Constitution so she can look it up!
