RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
Separation of Church and State is not found in the US Constitution. That phrase was included in a letter written by Thomas Jefferson to the Danbury Baptist church commenting that the US Government would refrain from officially endorsing any particular Denomination. (Denomination is a term affiliated with Christianity) This phrase has often been erroneously attributed to being in the Constitution when it is NOT. It is used falsely by Leftist to claim Freedom from Religon vs Freedom ofReligion
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree

What most closely matches your view on healthcare: A) Healthcare for all should be guaranteed and funded by the government with no private healthcare option. (includes "universal healthcare," "medicare for all," etc.) B) Healthcare insurance funded by the government should be available for all who want it, along with private healthcare options. C) Medicaid and Medicare should remain available, but no other taxpayer-funded programs are necessary.

Israel as a state Government has the right to exist. The US spends huge exorbitant amounts of US Taxfunds to support Israel. ... In 1967 Israel Attacked The USS Liberty in the 6 day war, Killing and wounding Americans. There IS reason to believe that a foriegn country WAS involved in the Assasination of Charley Kirk. Candice Owens has the receipts. Tyler R. IS a Patsy. The Schofield version of the Bible is wrong.
