Theoretically, the first amendment puts God and satan on equal footing, which is absurd. The US Constitution must explicitly state that Jesus Christ is King and Christianity is the Official Religion. Other religions can be tolerated but must be subordinate. And stupid religions like freemasonry, islam, judaism, and wicca should be criminalized.
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.
Federal government cannot outlaw Christianity or satanism, and it cannot promote Christianity or satanism. Fed is, in theory, supposed to treat these as the same ... which is stupid. Why would you allow an evil thing like this to exist? The people are clearly stupid enough to fall for it, and those who realize what's going on are very limited in their powers to turn the tide. The Federal government needs to be expressly and explicitly Christian, at least profess Christ to be King and Lord. None of this freemasonic, liberalism religious freedom TRASH.
You’d need a Constitutional Convention. Unless you intend on using brute force. And frankly Unless there is a more authoritarian Christian right-leaning lurch in domestic politics. It’s doubtful you’d get enough support in a Convention to amend the Constitution as such.
As you’d essentially be advocating the formation of a State Sanctioned Inquisition to enforce your bans. You’d also need to determine which Denomination of Christianity is the ‘Right’ one. As there isn’t a united Christian faith anymore. With many differences large and small between various denominations. Hence the centuries of religious oppression and feuding between denominations in ‘Christian’ Europe.
And if you empower one denomination. Then you better prepare for the others to start causing trouble.
God forbid, if Americans decide to go towards a more authoritarian Christian nation, its the Satanist's wet dreams come true. They have already made books and shows (like Handmaid's Tale) about this, envisioning how they will control the population under an authoritative Christian regime.
This quote seems relevant. And frankly yeah. I quite enjoy the non-authoritarian Christianity. You can be reasonably confident the door to door Bible Thumpers will leave after you tell them to fuck off. So you can enjoy your morning without a bloody lecture from the Mormons or whichever denomination is going door to door that week.
They may not be so willing to leave when they can park an IFV out front
I have a large NO SOLICITING placard on my front door. When they come, I open the door, lock eyes with the trespasser, and extend my arm and forefinger to point at the placard; then slowly and silently close the door while still pointing at the words and maintaining eye contact.
End of conversation.
I was working off OPs presupposed notion of abandoning the concept and amending the 1st amendment.
I’m personally well aware of the notion of the separation of church and state.
this is a freemasonic ideal used to banish Christ from the public square
Right. "Christians" aren't monolithic, any more than "white people" are.
Individuality and personal freedom of thought FTW
This is just my OPINION, I think realistically what will happen is that a great reset will happen in that there will be WW3, mass death destruction chaos, and then Catholicism will be ascendant throughout the globe and the whole world will covert (based on prophecies and such, you don't have to agree with my opinion)
As far as pragmatically speaking, you're right there is not a lot we can do in the current system. I'm just venting that, as great as America is and as much as I love my country, it's actually a terrible system that has within itself the seeds of its own destruction.
Maybe practically speaking, bare minimum, Jesus Christ is God, King, and Lord, and other basic dogmas in the Apostles Creed or Nicene Creed, and nothing more.
Lets face it, America is basically hijacked by jewish blackmailers for their own enrichment and ends. Religious freedom just gives them a place to exist and carry out their schemes.
so much naivete. so much twisting of the word with the doctrines of men. the kingdom of the Lord isn't now, its in the future- after the day of the Lord. now is a time of walking with/in the Lord to spread the good news to make disciples of all nations. why? because it is a time of choosing between good and evil. to make the choice you must have a choice. God wants to be with people who want to be with him, and he will honor your choices. choose wisely, and bring more understanding to your theology, it's mired in doctrines of men. hate to break it to you. God is a JEW, he's not a catholic. God's nature is well revealed in scripture, more reading and meditation please. start with matthew 7 v 15-23. read v 22-23 at least five times.
Correct - When Christ comes to reign - man's empires, rules, constitutions will all be blown away like chaff - Daniel 2
Come Lord Jesus Come
"and then Catholicism will be ascendant throughout the globe"
Ok, then I'm out. I serve God and Jesus, not a pope, not a bishop, not any man. Catholicism is the root of all evil. Religion is bullshit, faith doesn't need institutions.
It's God, Jesus and the Bible, period.
Catholicism (or any other form of organised Christianity) as as much about subverting the words of Jesus as is any other form of religion.
Freedom of humanity starts in the minds, not in the structure.
Your opinion is that Catholicism will take over the whole world.
My opinion is that if that happens we are all doomed.
Catholicism. Really? You're Catholic?
And you think THAT shit-show is going to be the one everybody suddenly converts to and goes skipping through the meadow holding hands and chanting?
Get real dude. The Catholic Church IS Satanism.
