After finding a moonbat judge that says that the National Day of Prayer is unconstitutional, Annie Laurie Gaylor and her group of religion hating bigots, the Freedom From Religion Foundation is now suing Milwaukee because they give city workers the day off. When it was pointed out that this is a contractually negotiated item in union contracts, Gaylor said that the city should take a hard line against the unions and get rid of this holiday.
Maybe Ms. Gaylor needs to reread the 1st. 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.
It says that government can not establish a religion. It also says that government can not prohibit the free exercise of religion… No where in the 1st. Amendment, or anywhere else in the US Constitution does it say anything about “separation of church and state.”
This small band of kooks need to be called out for what they are, anti-religious bigots.

This band of kooks needs to be locked in the mental institution in Waupun permanently.

I am SO freaking sick and tired of the “separation of church and state” bullshit. That is NOWHERE in the constitution…when will the idjits realize this?

I refuse to take them seriously as “anti-religion” until I see them protest something Islamic. Or even something Native American. The former they lose their heads, but the latter they lose their enablers…

The Freedom From Religion Foundation supporters think the Constitution says they don’t have to hear about or be shown a symbol of any religion.
That is not a correct reading of the First Amendment which says the Federal government shall not establish (set up or require one religion over others) nor shall it prohibit the free exercise of any religion.
If a union negotiates a day off that happens to be a day a majority religion has as a religious holiday, I don’t see how that is establishing or encouraging a religion. Union members who have other religious days can take a vacation day or leave day for those and the government can’t unduly deny them those days.

I agree with you 100% on this one. Crazy liberal hippies won’t stop until every vestige of the founding moral principles of this nation have been washed away.
By the way, Patrick, I’d like to send you a copy of my petition to make Ramadan a Federal holiday. I’m presuming you’ll sign?

These anti-religion zealots have taken it so far that they are using government to oppress the free practice of religion.
Cranky…I think government, banks and schools already close too much during the year, but if they want to pick a Muslim holiday to make an official day off…I’m cool with that. Ask any soldier for their opinion on Ramadan, and they’ll probably tell you they’re all for it…it’s when the cowardly car bombs and IED attacks cease.

If people want to celebrate their religious holidays, I have no problem with that, just as they should have no problem with me doing the same.
We can see where the real bigotry is, and today it is posting from the Medical College of Wisconsin.

Patrick, Patrick, Patrick, so telling to call someone a bigot when they’re agreeing with you. That’s the problem with a “zing”, it too often boomerangs.

You agree with me Mike? Wow, I’m honored… Don’t your employers have a policy about internet usage on company time?

Thanks for responding to a simple comment by insinuating you’d like to get a guy fired.
See you around, Patrick.
April 26th, 2010 at 4:23 pm
I wouldn’t want you to lose your job, see, I reminded you of the policy. But I also don’t want you trying to play silly games with me… See ya around.

And just like that…whallah!…
Chris “Capper” Liebenthal should have taken a lesson from the Mathias playbook.

It’s not just the anti-religious bigots who take exception to the national day of prayer. Many fine Christians do so as well.
“I find it both troubling and dangerous that so many zealous believers in any religion want to legislate their particular understanding of faith and God for everyone else,” said the Rev. Dr. Janis J. Kinens of Advent Lutheran Church in Cedarburg.
“We don’t need to look far to see the horrific and devastating results of a theocracy form of government,” he said.”

Timmy…How does giving people the day off from work “establish a religion”? How does allowing someone to celebrate their religion legislate (i.e. force) anyone to do anything?
Try using a quote that is relevant to the conversation next time.

How’s that for relevance, Rolly?

Roland Teeeeeeeny-Troll is right.
You ZEALOTS (sorry for the caps Patrick) are trying to legislate a theocracy.
