Why is a House Judiciary Committee holding hearings on theology? Seriously, why? It can't be legal. Just look at the reality here - some Christian faith based attorneys want to warn Congressman their is a war on religion in America.
The Chair Bob Goodlatte of the committee said:
"Indeed, the founding fathers feared the effect of government on the free exercise of religion. In a letter dated June 12, 1812 to Benjamin Rush, John Adams stated that ‘[n]othing is more dreaded than the National Government meddling with Religion.’
And then he meddles with it.
Here is the video of Congressman Louie Gohmert demanding a pastor accept his view of Christianity. Why is this Congressional business?
That witness has his say afterwards:
"t got even stranger. Soon Gohmert was talking about a “Seinfeld” episode where the character Elaine became upset to learn that her boyfriend was a Christian. This led to the real zinger: “Do you believe in sharing the good news that will keep people from going to hell consistent with the Christian beliefs?”
How can these hearings be legal?
They can't be legal. And it's our job as voters to see that nincompoops like these, who think they are, lose their jobs.
