Fascism in Connecticut

The First Amendment begins “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof …”

Now consider that the Connecticut government recently drafted a bill (with public hearings today) specific to the Roman Catholic Church, thus violating the “establishment” clause. This bill would mandate elections, empower the winners to spend the church’s money, and prohibit the bishops, priests, or any other church members from spending the church’s money, thus violating the “free exercise” clause.

It scares the crap out of me that any government would attempt such a flagrant violation of the First Amendment.

I understand this bill may seem anti-religious, but it is not anti-religious – it is anti-American.

I am an atheist, and I can assure you this bill is neither atheist nor humanist. It is in fact – anti-human.
