Dear Newswatch Magazine Listeners/Readers:
T
he Illuminati [worshipers of Lucifer] founded the
Communist movement for the specific purpose of
being the TOOL by which they could have a frontal
attack upon the United States and all its Christian
institutions. The Communist claim they are atheists.
The founders of Communism are NOT - they worship
Lucifer by name. However, the Illuminati knows
history well. Every nation that turns its back upon the
true God's Laws live mainly in poverty and collapse
under the rise of new political and military regimes.
The Communists infiltrate in secret into organizations to delete all religious content out of the group. The American Civil Liberty Union was founded by Marxist Roger Baldwin for the PURPOSE of taking court cases that tend to undermine America's Christian institutions. Not every lawyer that works for the ACLU is a Communist. They select people who have a soap box they want to preach from to change society - that has a CAUSE!
The ACLU and Americans for the Separation of Church and State [cited as a Communist front] have tried - and quite successfully with the aid of subversive judges - to pawn of the phrase "separation of church and state" as a legitimate Constitutional truth - MEANING that nothing religious could ever be mentioned in schools, public government buildings and the like. They always cite Thomas Jefferson as being the author of this phrase and an EXPERT on the First Amendment to the Constitution. What is the truth? And can you know?
The First Amendment reads: "Congress shall make NO law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof."
The Communist do not let the fact that the phrase "separation of church and state" NEVER appears in any founding document on the County, State or Federal level stop them from their pursuit of destroying our Christian institutions.
To be exact, the Supreme Court of the United States, on February 29, 1892, in a 9-0 decision declared that all of our State and Federal Constitutions and document showed we were a Christian nation. The Communist hate that and have done all in their power to combat truth out of our institutions.
In 1802, Dr. Joseph Priestly sent a copy of an article to Thomas Jefferson that he had written giving credit to him for much of the thought and work on the Constitution. Jefferson immediately responded to let Dr. Priestly know that his statements of credit were not correct. On June 19, 1802, Jefferson wrote Dr. Priestly instructing him to correct the error:
"One passage in the paper you enclosed me must be corrected. It is the following, 'And all say it was yourself more than any other individual that planned and established it,' i.e., the Constitution. I was in Europe when the Constitution was planned, and NEVER SAW IT till after it was established."
Jefferson was an ambassador in France when the Constitution was planned, written and framed! He did NOT attend the Constitutional Convention at all. Jefferson stated so, so how do the courts let this truth slide by as if he were there?
The ONLY time this phrase [separation of church and state] was ever mentioned by Thomas Jefferson was in a personal and private letter written on January 1, 1802. It was not a public policy paper.
The Supreme Court early on did publish Jefferson's ENTIRE letter which used that phrase, but it showed the opposite meaning from the modern Communists misrepresenting the phrase. In the Reynolds v. United States, 1878, it quoted the entire letter. We will quote only that part of the court decision that pertains to this editorial:
"[A]t the first session of the first Congress [the First] Amendment…met the views of the advocates of religious freedom, and was adopted. Mr. Jefferson afterwards, in reply to an address to him by a committee of the Danbury Baptist Association (8 id, 113), took occasion to say: 'Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between man and his God; that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship; that the legislative powers of the government reach actions only, and not opinions, - I contemplate with sovereign reference that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should "make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof," thus building a wall of separation between church and State…"
That Court then summarized Jefferson's meaning of "separation of church and state": "[T]he rightful purposes of civil government are for its officers to interfere [only] when [religious] principles break out into overt acts against peace and good order. In th[is]…is found the true distinction between what properly belongs to the church and what to the State." According to Jefferson and the Court, the government could interfere with religion ONLY when its actions were "subversive of good order" or "broke out into overt acts against peace and good order."
That Court, for example in Commonwealth v. Nesbit, 1859, identified those actions into which the government had a legitimate reason to intrude: human sacrifice, polygamy, bigamy, concubinage, incest, injury to children, advocation and promotion of immorality, etc. In orthodox religious practices - WHETHER PUBLIC PRAYER, THE USE OF THE SCRIPTURES, etc. - the government was NOT to interfere.
The Congress of the United States by a simple majority vote can overturn ANY and ALL Court decisions that interfere with freedom of religion. The Court has NO Constitutional authority to legislate anything!
Sincerely,
