Re: Prime piece of Propaganda

By todays standard "separation of church and state" is not what it was in the early wake of the founding, in the heart of the continent of America, of a union of several States. With few exceptions, by today's standards SoCaS is a vehicle employed only when it serves a specific agenda, such as the political purpose of those with ready access to and control of the USA's levers of power.

As just an example, the founding documents put God and the bible in public places, like the classroom, like the chambers of political machinery, and at the entrances to such places. It took nearly two century's worth of greasing the wheels of said agenda to finally reshape the original system to the point where the system has since been found to be in contradiction of itself. In other words, the system - the Constitution - or at least parts of it, are not being interpreted to be "unconstitutional". Since then God and the Bible have gradually become evicted from the public places where the Constitution had originally placed them. America is no longer America. Instead it is increasingly a blob of political regions bounded by Canada to the North and Mexico to the South.

The morphing of " separation " demonstrates how those with ready access to the levers of power of this system were able to exploit and parlay the freedom the system originally provided to the extent that they now control and dictate 1 ) the extent of freedom available and 2) who gets some of it (and who does not).
