There are thousands (millions?) of people in this country that ARENT Christian but will have to adhere to "Christian" morals IF you and your ilk have your way.
This is unacceptable and flies in the face of the LANGUAGE of the Second Amendment: Congress shall make NO LAW respecting the establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof....
That MEANS, boys and girls (pay attention Brown Eyes) that Congress may not set one religion above another Any attempt to do so is UNCONSTITUTIONAL and The Supreme Court MUST strike it down. That is why the Georgia Schools that put the anti-evolutionary stickers in their biology textbooks had to remove them. That is why that wacko Judge had to remove the 10 Commandments statue from the Courthouse lobby. and on and on and on.

And I never said they should. I do not argue that. But the fact remains that THIS COUNTRY, LIKE IT OUR NOT, was founded on the basic principles and beliefs of GOD (let me spell it out for you) G-O-D. This country was very much a christian society when it was formed.
That said, I'm not saying that anyone should be FORCED to be anything, but the verification of what "marriage" is can be made an ammedment without it dealing with religion, although most religions object to it!
