If André Carson, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, and Lateefah Simon all prayed together in the House at one of the 5 daily prayers, during a vote, would the USA shrug?
That’s not what that means. Separation of church and state simply means that the law doesn’t favor one religion over another. What you’re thinking of is the French formulation, known as laicite, which—you guessed it—is a French thing. It’s also based on some pretty problematic ideas that lead and have led to some pretty problematic results, so yeah.
For a non-French example, he’s the Australian constitution on the topic:
The Commonwealth shall not make any law for establishing any religion, or for imposing any religious observance, or for prohibiting the free exercise of any religion, and no religious test shall be required as a qualification for any office or public trust under the Commonwealth.
Nothing at all about lawmakers publicly adhering to a religion.
Separation of church and state is supposed to be a thing. Lawmakers praying inside the chamber isn’t separate at all.

Nope, it’d be another 911 to the R tards and they’d scream about it like bitchy toddlers from every podium they could find
Both Republicans and Democrats said Miller was rediculous for complaining about prayers

Actually not surprising at all

They are jackass.
But this is as educated as screaming first amendment when a mod removes a post. Wow.
