OUR election

Y'all are thinking what I am? How can any American not trust the same system that elected Trump with a smaller popular vote and a higher electorial college vote when the results are a canidate with higher popular vote and higher electorial votes? We have to open our education system to real facts.

It's been awhile

With my retirement as President from Americans United's Atlanta chapter Presidency, I now hope to be able to communicate about many more issues other than Separation of church and state. Looking forward to "hopefully" being more active on this blog than I was before. If you know of any new people, in agreement or disagreement with our open minded issues, please spread the word. Thanks and In Peace, I wish already, Jeffrey Selman.

The immoratlity of burning any book let alone a book of people's belief

I hope true American values enter the heart and mind of the Rev planning on burning the Koran on Sept 11. He lacks all moral and sensible standing eventhough the law can not stop him. He is a man NOT of the G-d he claims to be his.

An existing Mosque near Ground zero?

I just recieved an email from a friend who said that there is a previously existing Mosque near ground zero. Amazing that was never mentioned before.

NYC Mosque

If we act like our enemy the enemy has won. A majority liking something or not cannot dictate in a free nation the "what, where, why or who" of other people's beliefs. The ground zero area Mosque cannot be stopped. In this situation even the future protests will play into the real terrorists hands. Live and let live even when it's hard or the real terrorist enemy wins. The government must not intervene without opening the door to future religious entwinements. Who would be next?

So already, comment and spread the word

So already, comment and spread the word. This blog has got to start reaching other people so the debate can go forth and help to fix the wrongs theocracy causes. Mention this blog on others that you follow (especially if they are in opposition.) Talking amonst ourselves solves nothing. Defending through debate, not imposing, is a good step toward conciliation and peace .

Praise for overturning ban on same sex marriage. Constitutionally protected Citizen rights

The constitution applies to all people living within the United States. Since marriage in not mentioned or even implied within the document, I don't see the connection the theocrats keep insisting exists. The constitution establishes an implied wall of separation between church and state, protecting all citizens from the myopic biased untenable views of theocrats. Saying some people can marry while others can’t is based on theocratic bias and has no place in the fair treatment of all people. For those of you who do not really know the constitution, Article VI states that no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States. Also, oaths, for those believing in a deity, are given equal weight to affirmations, for those who do not. The First Amendment supports these statements in the body of the constitution all of which imply, without having to state exactly, that there is a separation of church and state in the United States.
Marriage by anyone to anyone else within our country is a personal and private matter and is not dictated in the constitution by theocratic dogma.
My faith is my business and I will not impose it on other people. Those of a different understanding, practice it on your own time not ours. There are many paths to understanding the Universe, mine, like yours, is not dependent on each other. Peace
