I totally agree that there should be at some point a seperation of church and state. But that seperation should not take away the rights of religious freedom. The freedom our forefathers came to this country to be able practice. That's one of the main reasons for establishing this great nation in the first place. I don't mind saying that all my life i've been a strong democrat but the other night I heard one of the best speeches on this topic i've ever heard. I'm speaking of the one given by Mitt Romney titled "Faith in America". If you haven't heard it I would strongly recommend you go to the website and do so. It differs from the one given by John F. Kennedy a few decades ago and explanes the importants of FAITH in making governmental decisions. Not on a denomination basis. But on the basis of faith in God. For in making these decisions our leaders need the prayers of all denominations. Romney in his speech gained another vote......Mine!

Exactly! The founders just didn't want a church of America, nor did they want Congress to not allow a religion. So the 1st amendment was born, guaranteeing this.

The speech was good.. I'm not a big Mitt Romney fan by any means, but it was definately refreshing to hear.
