What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
The state does not have the right to interfere with your religious beliefs or practices; as long as no one else is harmed or hurt by those practices. As in all cases, the courts retain the jurisdiction to arbitrate the issues and boundaries of such practices. But the government does not have the legal authority to compel a person's adherence to any religion. The government shall not establish a preferred religion.

C) Medicaid and Medicare should remain available, but no other taxpayer-funded programs are necessary. D) Taxpayer funded health care should be abolished in all forms, and Medicaid and Medicare should be defunded.
C
The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am a Christian. Jesus Christ was born of a virgin, lived a perfect life, died by crucifixion, rose on the third day and lives forever as our Lord God Almighty. These are the basic tenets of Christianity. Believing in the Bible and that Jesus Christ is God does not make you a Christian. Having a personal trusting relationship with Jesus Christ- Jesus knowing you in a personal relationship makes you a Christian. Salvation is a free gift of God. However, There is no salvation without repentance. Work out your salvation with fear and trembling. For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead. You cannot work your way into Heaven. As a Christian you will naturally work for the glory of Jesus Christ.

2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
None. Gun ownership is a personal, moral and ethical paradigm. Gun safety is a sacred responsibility. With rights comes responsibility. Responsible gun owners know they are responsible for that weapon from the time of acquisition to the last shot fired. They are responsible for that bullet until it is fired and comes to a rest. Whoever controls that weapon is responsible for the outcome of that fired shot. Young people need to be taught responsible gun ownership.
