You don’t get a break because you’re white.

And what pastor would push the idea of killing people in a foreign nation that never did anything wrong to his country?
Hmm, speaking of Jesse Jackson, will they allow his body to lie in state when he passes?

We all know the answer to that.

And when Obama passes, rest assured that we'll see countless posts on the internet full of rage that he's allowed to lie in state, and half of them will be filled with racial slurs.

We all know how the game is played. If you're a evangelical "Christian" and white, you can do no wrong and everyone is supposed to put up with your crap.

Did Billy donate all his money to charity upon death? Lol - of course not.

This thread gives me hope for C-D.

Three die hard conservatives, sometimes referred to as deplorables and dotards and Trumpees by the other side are lying in the same bed and having the same position as three die hard liberals, when they normally go at each other's throats.

Who also , might I add, raised a very
bigoted son. Between that and not leaving all or some of his millions to the
poor makes you wonder who Graham really was deep down.

Can you find me where dictates separation between church and state in the Constitution?

What the Constitution says is

Quote:
Amendment I. 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.
I fail to see the word separation written in there, can you point it out to me?

The separation of church and state is a philosophic and jurisprudential concept for defining political distance in the relationship between religious organizations and the nation state.

That could be taken a few different ways. Maybe he was a political leader afterall. But then praying with presidents doesn't violate the First Amendment. If it did, we'd only allow atheists to be president.

Still haven't gotten an answer to that question. I'd like to know where Jesus preached the 'goodness' of attacking countries that'd done nothing to us?
