Those unsaved Hindu heathens can worship their unsacred demon cow; I'll be eating my steak with all of the trimmings while they do it.

I just wonder if our own Godly GOP might have a secret weapon to use against hindooos? If nothing else, a shotgun loaded with double ott and some rock salt ought to work.

Massachusetts General Law, Chapter 272, Section 36

"Whoever wilfully blasphemes the holy name of God by denying, cursing or contumeliously reproaching God, his creation, government or final judging of the world, or by cursing or contumeliously reproaching Jesus Christ or the Holy Ghost, or by cursing or contumeliously reproaching or exposing to contempt and ridicule, the holy word of God contained in the holy scriptures shall be punished by imprisonment in jail for not more than one year or by a fine of not more than three hundred dollars, and may also be bound to good behavior."

Yes, a single state. A single rather... odd state (respectively speaking). Not nationalized in the least. Ergo, you still have to answer my question.

From the Declaration of Independence:

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

The signers of the Declaration were all Christians, so this obviously refers to Jesus.

Simply put: so? Yes, our forefathers were largely Deists and Protestants (was it Protestant, or was that another country?), however, they in no way implicated their own personal religious convictions into our constitution in any way that would limit our right to freedom of religious expression.
