A Republican lawmaking in Tennessee has introduced legislation that would add references to God and “our Savior” to the state’s constitution.
House Joint Resolution 71, proposed by state Rep. James VanHuss (R-Jonesborough), would add the language, “We recognize that our liberties do not come from governments, but from Almighty God, our Creator and Savior” to Article I of the Constitution of Tennessee.
The new language could clash with Article I, Section 3 of the Tennessee constitution, which declares “no preference shall ever be given, by law, to any religious establishment or mode of worship.”
You know I'm guessing that somebody has a really hard time understanding that whole "separation of church and state" thing.
I cannot get over how these people all seem convinced that our laws and political system are based on the Bible, when in fact they are almost completely borrowed from the early Greeks.
Who by the way, were NOT Christians.
