Worship... Or Not

Religious liberty and the separation of church and state allow all of us to make our own private choices about faith and how we practice what we believe. What makes America different from other countries is that our right to make decisions about our beliefs is a private matter protected by the Constitution.

Some advocacy groups want to change the First Amendment and allow elected officials to make decisions about when and how people pray. Sometimes these misguided efforts are focused on introducing coercive prayers at public schools; sometimes they are focused on imposing sectarian devotions at meetings of governmental bodies.

 

Our private choice to worship, or not, must be protected when we go to work and to school and when we participate in our communities. It is never up to politicians or public officials to coerce us into supporting religious expressions in which we do not believe.
