Gary Glenn proposes the idea that the United States is a Christian nation, with the government providing only a limited sort of religious freedom – that which protects Christianity in particular. He also expresses the idea that American rights don’t come from the Constitution at all, but rather from the deity that he worships.

If I were Preacher Barry C. Black, I wouldn’t push it with declarations about how my religion’s god is going to come into Congress and destroy any laws he doesn’t like.

Congressman Steve King can only see a small portion of what the United States of America has been and is becoming. No matter what our individual ethnicities and cultural traditions are, we all need to have a truly representative government made up of people who are able and willing to work with the diversity of identities that make up the American people.

The Larochelles were seeking to separate the flag from the Constitution, and to make it a symbol of religious belief – and officially recognized by Congress as such. Congressman Mike Turner was more than happy to help them do this – and to try to use the boy scout as a tool to push religion as a wedge issue – when he introduced H.R. 3779.
