Wall Believe Church

More From Sam Ervin

I believe in a wall between church and state so high that no one can climb over it. when religion controls government, political liberty dies; and when government controls religion, religious liberty perishes. every american has the constitutional right not to be taxed or have his tax money expended for the establishment of religion. for too long the issue of government aid to church related organizations has been a divisive force in our society and in the congress. it has erected communication barriers among our religions and fostered intolerance.
Religious Wall Believe
I do not believe in the creed professed by the jewish church, by the roman church, by the greek church, by the turkish church, by the protestant church, nor by any church that i know of. my own mind is my own church.
Atheist Pain Fear
It is true that traditional christianity is losing some of its appeal among americans, but that is a religious, not political, matter. it is worth remembering that the jeffersonian 'wall of separation' between church and state has always been intended to protect the church from the state as much as the state from the church.
Religious Wall Political
A climb-out fight is where you climb a building. you climb fire escapes. you climb to the top of the building. you fight on the roof, and you fight all the way down again.
Fighting Fire Way
We worry a great deal about the problem of church and state. now what about the church and god? sometimes there seems to be a greater separation between the church and god than between the church and state.
Thought Provoking Worry Church
We must avoid the spiritual disease of the church that can become self-referential: when this happens, the church itself becomes sick. it’s true that accidents can happen when you go out into the street, as can happen to any man or woman. but if the church remains closed onto itself, self-referential, it grows old. between a church that goes into the street and gets into an accident and a church that is sick with self-referentiality, i have no doubts in preferring the first.
