Constitution of the United States~
I just need to know where I can find this idea that there exists in our constitution words that clearly states: that there is a separation of church and state!
I’m asking YOU to show me where those words are!
If you can’t find ‘that’ phrase where it mentions a separation of church and state, I think that you need to ask yourself, "Why isn’t that phrase in the constitution?" (I’m assuming that you won’t be able to show me the pharse)
YOU are free to belief anything that you like. And you are free to find rationales for any of your beliefs. But, I daresay the following: YOU also have to acknowledge truths, whether YOU agree with them or not. And one of those truths is: there is not a phase in the United States constitution that says that there is a separation of church and state! Whether YOU think that there should be is irrevelant as far as truth goes…if you are talking about what is in the constitution of the United States!
I am not sure of what to say about this. I ONLY know that there at your place, there are many sections of separations of many regions, states and even LAWS. I think, it is incredibly silly or crazy! As if in ONE country you are all not really living as ONE??? Can I say it like this? No offend! Just my opinion! *smile*

I believe ONLY becoming ONE with the LORD and nothing else matter … But it depends also for whatever MESSAGES those people get out there – if somebody sends the wrong mesagge then they all learn it ALL WRONG. This is why a right preacher must come in to send the right MESSAGE to the people so that we all MOVE together and gathering in ONE CHURCH and becoming as ONE with CHRIST …

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separation_of_church_and_state_in_the_United_States Check this out. And when the thought was conceived it was to keep the state out of religion, not religion out of everything.

Relax. As soon as the Muslims have all the right people paid off, we’ll reverse this silly seperation of church and state and institute a state religion.

Only ignorant people think that the phrase is literally in the Constitution. Others know that it is Jefferson’s phrase that he used as a more convenient, shorthand way of referring to the text in the first amendment, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof” and possibly also to the prohibition against religious test for officethat appears in, I think, Article 6. The Constitution does not contain the phrase “Separation of Powers,” either, though it is frequently invoked. Does that mean it does not support that principle? Davo

He used to joke around about being a single father to some daughters … and he told his men-friends something like this … “If you want your girls to understand you, then take a moment to be a woman in your mind! Be one! And you shall have your girls within minutes to trust you with their whole …

But I have decided long ago to chose a friend of my own in this place and having digital diary and digital friendship! hehehehe … It’s good to know that a good friend never judge and knows better of how to handle any situation in a friendship. Real friendship base on honesty, no judgment & no trial.
