Does anyone one in the United Stated honestly believe church and state are separated? Divisive Puritan religiosity continues its biased rule that armed forces, boy scouts and the public use in this sectarian rite.
Dear Ones,
Due to biased U.S. customs ingrained in the culture today, Muslims still call Americans Crusaders, what harms this country big time.
Our founding fathers insisted on separation of church and state, especially Thomas Jefferson and Thomas Paine, the author of Common Sense, what is lacking today on Earth–as we are blowing up continually "God's creation." When government is entangled with pernicious religious fear and superstition, we see the results in bloody chaos down through the centuries.
In regard to the shape of the flag when not flying the 4th ritual fold stands for trusting in the Judeo-Christian "God and Him" for his divine guidance.
The 6th ritual fold represents the same god "who enters the shadow of death that we might see the light of day."
This nation still swears on a JudeoChristian Bible. The irony of the 11th ritual fold in the flag represents "the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob"–leaving out Abraham's son Ishmael, the Islam legacy.
The 12th ritual fold "glorifies God, the Son and Holy Ghost."
The flag is then folded in a triangle representing the trinity as the colonial tri-corn cocked hat did centuries ago. Bing, bang, boom–religious domination entirely!
Is this ritual arrogant or hypocritical? An explicit example of the encroachment of sectarianism in domestic federal affairs is when a government employee refuses to sign a marriage certificate because in her eyes it goes against her religion concerning gays. When this happens she denies other people their own belief.
