Roman for Congress - The First Amendment
In the Kentucky Resolutions of 1798, Thomas Jefferson wrote:
"It is true, as a general principle..... that no power over the freedom of religion, freedom of speech, or freedom of the press being delegated to the United States by the Constitution.... all lawful powers respecting the same did of right remain and were reserved to the states, or to the people."
Quoted from Page 88 of the 5000 Year Leap.
Does Jefferson make this clear enough? There is no "separation of church and state" in the Constitution, especially as designed by Justice Hugo Black. This must again be addressed by the Supreme Court.
