The establishment clause

Does not mean that the Serious Men of Washington are to be believed.

Saint McCain talks to beliefnet.


A recent poll found that 55 percent of Americans believe the U.S. Constitution establishes a Christian nation. What do you think?

I would probably have to say yes, that the Constitution established the United States of America as a Christian nation.
No, this is the Establishment Clause, otherwise known as the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution:

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'm so sick of these idiots, and why McCain thinks that anything he's going to say -- no matter how much he knows it's wrong -- is going to get the Christianists to vote for him is beyond me.
