Here's the gist of things. We have kids of tweens and a couple years older trying to tell what billions think is right that they are religious basketcases. On the other hand we have msb and I trying to tell the kids not to call us such.

This is an extrapolation of the current atmosphere in America - kids see the separation of Church and State as more reason to advance a 110% secular USA; people who have years (and I am only 20 btw but ppl always said I was older for my years) see that the SofC&S is PROTECTION OF religion FROM THE government.

“God who gave us life gave us liberty. And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are a gift from God? That they are not to be violated but with His wrath? Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, and that His justice cannot sleep forever.” [Notes on the State of Virginia, 1781] -- Thomas Jefferson, key framer of American democracy
