The Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. We must reject the separation of church and state.

Now, I know this topic right here, particularly with our American friends, of which I'm an American.

This one's sensitive.

Ever since you were in high school, you have been taught that the glory of America is that we separate the church and state. If you went to public schools, if you went to private schools, if you went to a Catholic school, you were probably

taught explicitly or implicitly that we must separate the church and state. And I can still

remember my social studies teacher in ninth grade eloquently explaining that, you know, for hundreds and hundreds of years in Europe,

there were these religious wars and the Spanish Inquisition, and there were crusades and bloodshed.

And then America came. And in the United States of America, we thought up this

brilliant idea, separation of church and state. And just like that, war went away. There was peace. There was tranquility, it was the best thing ever.

The Americans are the geniuses.

They came up with the separation of church and state.

Thomas Jefferson, the author of the concept, he actually used the term the wall of the separation of church and state. And if you're a little

resistant to today's topic, I just, from the very beginning, I want to say, look, the way it's

set up is church and state, separation of church and state, not mosque in state, not synagogue

in state, not Hindu temple in state, Buddhist temple, church.

And we look around today in 2025 with dismay. We see Sharia law being instituted by Muslims.

We see or we hear in some places the call by Muslims. We see, or we hear in some places, the call, the Muslim call to worship.

We see Hindus here in Texas setting up living communities, HOA, where they built giant monkey

gods.

And then if we Christians say, hey, we want to pray in Jesus' name at the courthouse or in school

or we want to do something Christian in the town square, no. Separation of church and state.

Go back to your prayer corner.
