| 0:00.0 | Ahh. Hi, I'm Brother Jake. Now there are a lot of people out there that think that religious freedom in the US isn't being consistently and systematically |
| 0:23.2 | undermined by an unspoken conspiracy of freedom haters, but they couldn't be more wrong. |
| 0:27.3 | Let me explain. |
| 0:28.3 | The thing is religion is a super important part of our society. |
| 0:30.9 | This is a Christian nation, which we know because modern day prophets told us |
| 0:33.7 | that God inspired the founding fathers to write the Constitution. Plus religion is what gives |
| 0:37.2 | us morals. Without religion, how would you know right from wrong? Sure, there are some people out |
| 0:40.9 | there who think it's possible to use logic and reason and basic |

| 1:23.3 | opposite of what the separation of church and state is supposed to do. |
| 1:26.1 | And I mean yeah they kind of have a point but the answer isn't to take away all the school |
| 1:29.4 | prayers and courthouse commandments. What we should do is let all religions put up whatever symbols they want in public places. |
| 1:34.5 | So parks and schools could all have the normal stuff like a cross and a fish symbol and a major scene and the 10 commandments |
| 1:39.2 | and all the, you know, other stuff like a Buddha and one of those things he's and sure public spaces might |
| 1:44.6 | start to look a little weird if they were all peppered with a bunch of |
| 1:46.8 | different religious symbols but it's all about the freedom dude now some other |
