    The open border policy and jumping into un-necessary wars is taking focus away from the real internal issues.

    There is no conflict between biblical principles and the civic principle of religious freedom. In fact, it is precisely because the United States was founded on biblical principles that religious freedom exists. Only governments rooted in Judeo-Christian values allow such broad freedom. Most Islamic, Hindu, and Buddhist governments do not allow religious freedom; therefore, countries such as Pakistan, India, and Tibet are, as a whole, intolerant of other religions. Atheistic governments, such as the former Soviet Union, have also proved to be antagonistic toward free religious expression. The concept of the freedom of religion is biblical for several reasons. First, God Himself extends a “freedom of religion” to people, and the Bible has several examples. In Matthew 19:16-23, the rich young ruler comes to Jesus. After a brief conversation, the young man “went away sorrowful,” choosing not to follow Christ. The salient point here is that Jesus let him go. God does not “force” belief in Him. Faith is commanded but never coerced. In Matthew 23:37, Jesus expresses His desire to gather the children of Jerusalem to Himself, but they “were not willing.” If God gives men the freedom to choose or to reject Him, then so should we. “In God We Trust" is on our money. "Under God" is in the Pledge. Congress opens with a prayer. The President is sworn in on a Bible “separation of church and state” which is found in the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. This clause was written by the framers of the Constitution in order to ensure that religion does not become influenced by government authority, and to also ensure that religious groups could freely practice their faith without federal-imposed restrictions. “The separation of church and state was never meant to keep the church out of the world, but rather to protect the church from the government having too much say,” Central Baptist Church pastor Bruce Stinson said. “The Church of England, the Pilgrims and other religious groups had come from countries where the government was heavily involved in the church, regulating things such as giving financially, marriages, who could own a copy of the Bible and who could not. If you disagreed with the governments stance on religion then you could be tried for treason. The new American settlers and writers of our constitution did not want the government having that kind of control.” Given that the majority of the framers were Christian, as is evident by the inclusion of multiple references to God in both the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, it would almost seem strange that they would write a clause that kicks religion out of the house of government. But years of persecution by a State Church, as well as the disastrous aftermath of witch hunts and public trials by Puritan courts, emphasized the importance of ensuring that the body of government and the body of religion both be able to operate outside of each other’s influence or control. And while the framers did ensure that the future of America would be safe from theocratic authority or religious persecution, it is still vital to note the more important ways in which their faith, more specifically, the CHRISTIAN faith, has made a significant impact on American culture. “Their faith was so strong and so ingrained in them that they couldn’t help but use it as the language for those historic documents,” Pete Adrian, Senior Pastor of First United Methodist Church, said. “The Ten Commandments is a good example of that idea that you do not tread on other people, you don’t take or covet what they have. All of those ideas are found in the Constitution, but they’re also found in their religious code. That was their language, it’s how they spoke, it’s how they thought, so that’s part of why they wrote the Constitution and the Bill of Rights and all the rest.”

    So God has a father and a mother yet his father is not his father as he has no father as his mother is virgin also gods mother is not godess. Yes this sounds like a true religion and definately not a logical contradiction. Worship God of Ambrahem ✡️☪️ Allah Elohim, not a man who walked earth and was dependent on his mother...

    Christianity more like Paulinity is the false religion. Bible is full of self contradiction and Paulinity and it's doctrine is rationally bankrupt

    so if jesus the son is god then that means god impregnated his own mother in order to be born so he is the father of himself and impregnated his own mother
