Trump Declared Today, January 16, 2018, as Religious Freedom Day..

Whatever his faults just his stances on issues like abortion and faith still make him a much better choice than the alternative.

**Issued on: January 16, 2018**

**"Faith is embedded in the history, spirit, and soul of our Nation.  On Religious Freedom Day, we celebrate the many faiths that make up our country, and we commemorate the 232nd anniversary of the passing of a State law that has shaped and secured our cherished legacy of religious liberty."**


**"Our forefathers, seeking refuge from religious persecution, believed in the eternal truth that freedom is not a gift from the government, but a sacred right from Almighty God.."**

**"Unfortunately, not all have recognized the importance of religious freedom, whether by threatening tax consequences for particular forms of religious speech, or forcing people to comply with laws that violate their core religious beliefs without sufficient justification.  These incursions, little by little, can destroy the fundamental freedom underlying our democracy.  Therefore, soon after taking office, I addressed these issues in an Executive Order that helps ensure Americans are able to follow their consciences without undue Government interference and the Department of Justice has issued guidance to Federal agencies regarding their compliance with laws that protect religious freedom.  No American — whether a nun, nurse, baker, or business owner — should be forced to choose between the tenets of faith or adherence to the law."**

I believe he was chosen by God to be our president giving America's Second Chance.  Many Christians prayed to God and God heard our prayers.  We need as a nation to continue to turn away from our Wicked Ways and God will heal our land.  Trump is not perfect by any means but many of the folks that got issues to biblically have had their downfalls. At least Trump acknowledges God and shows some degree of reverence toward him

Freedom is not from the government but God and that's one of the reasons Jesus came, we have overcome the world policies as believers.
Thank you for letting us know what's on going.

Wow!  Great news!  With this news trump has demonstrated contempt for religious pluralism and other constitutional values that makes Americans proud. 

It declared that no person could be forced to support any religion through taxes, and it also established that a person’s civil capacities  could not be enlarged or diminished based on their religious beliefs.

Thanks for sharing this news@wilx
