WASTED TIME ON SENSELESS ITEMS BY BUSH

Religious Freedom Day, 2007 A Proclamation by the President of the United States of America

On Religious Freedom Day, we commemorate the passage of the 1786 Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom, authored by Thomas Jefferson, and we celebrate the First Amendment's protection of religious freedom.
Across the centuries, people have come to America seeking to worship the Almighty freely. Today, our citizens profess many different faiths, and we welcome every religion. Yet people in many countries live without the freedom to worship as they choose and some face persecution for their beliefs. My Administration is working with our friends and allies around the globe to advance common values and spread the blessings of liberty to every corner of the world. Freedom is a gift from the Almighty, written in the heart and soul of every man, woman, and child, and we must continue to promote the importance of religious freedom at home and abroad.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim January 16, 2007, as Religious Freedom Day. I call on all Americans to reflect on the great blessing of religious liberty, endeavor to preserve this freedom for future generations, and commemorate this day with appropriate events and activities in their schools, places of worship, neighborhoods, and homes.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this eleventh day of January, in the year of our Lord two thousand seven, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty-first.


GEORGE W. BUSH
...WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT?..WELL WHY THE LAW GIVERS ARE SLAMMING PEOPLE LEFT AND RIGHT WITH DECLARATIONS PREVENTING ORDINARY PEOPLE TO HAVE THIER RELIGIOUS IDENTITY ECKNOWLEDGED IN THIER COMMUNITYS THEY THEMSELVES ARE ALLOWED A DIFFERENT SET OF STANDARDS...PRETTY MUCH SAYING THAT THEY CAN INCORPORATE THIER RELIGIOUS CONVICTIONS INTO LAWS AND PROCLAMATIONS BUT YOU CANNOT....THIS IS HOW I SEE IT BY HEARING WHAT IS HAPPENING WITHIN COMMUNITIES AND THEN READING HOW THE GOVERNMENT BEGINS AND ENDS ITS LEGISLATION WITH AN OBVIOUS BLENDING OF CHURCH AND STATE...PERSONALLY CHURCH SHOULD BE KEPT WITHIN YOURSELF AND NOT ALLOWED TO DOMINATE NOR DICTATE THE AFFAIRS OF THIS NATIONS GOVERNMENT.....
