The Seperation of Church and State-God in the Temples of Government.
The Old Man And The Z
02/13/23 • 58 min
In this episode we learn about this often-quoted phrase, "The separation of church and state." Where do we find it. What is the establishment clause, how are they related. Is It true that nothing in the constitution has been so judiciously perverted as the establishment clause. Why do God, Moses, and the 10 Commandments
seem to be everywhere in D.C. if religion is supposed to be separate from government. And what does Little House on the Prairie have to do with all this.
And drum roll please........ The Old Man unveils for the 1st
time in public the short story he wrote a few years ago entitled "The Recipe"
This and so much more. You don’t want to miss it.
Don't doubt me on this.
