Church and State

I think alot of these people who complain that the United States government has to much God and wants to remove God from everything, they need to go back to school and relearn what *The Separation Of Church and State * is,
A letter from Thomas Jefferson

Jefferson simply quotes the First Amendment then uses a metaphor, the "wall", to separate the government from interfering with religious practice
When Thomas Jefferson wrote his letter to the Danbury Baptist Association he never intended the words "Separation of Church and State" to be taken out of context and used as a substitute for theFirst Amendment, but for all practical purposes is what the courts have done. No where in the first amendment do you find the words"Separation of Church and State"
At the very heart of Jefferson's idea "Wall of Separation",  is the notion that the government will not interfere with people's right to worship God.  The very fact that the government has ruled to regulate religious practices, indicates that the government has crossed that "Wall of Separation."

Ridiculous fees.

This is the most ridiculous thing I ever heard of a  $75 annual fee to the local fire department.
A couple in Tennessee who's home burnt down because they failed to pay this fee, firefighters just 
stood back and watched their home burn down.
This particular town government needs a better way to support its emergency personnel .
What would they have done if someone was trapped inside?  Thats a scary thought.
