American Myths

[Doubting Thomas]

What's scary is how so many of these Christian nationalists believe things like, "The Establishment Clause only means that Congress can't pass a law favoring one denomination of Christianity over another," "The First Amendment only says that the government can't control churches, but doesn't say that churches can't have a say in government" or "The Founding Fathers were Christians, so freedom of religion shouldn't apply to Muslims." Actually, Herman Cain is guilty of saying something similar to the last one, claiming that Muslims shouldn't be protected under the First Amendment.
