A good idea or bad idea?

To invite a Priest, a Rabbi, a Protestant clergy, an Islamic and Rev, Graham to White House to express concerns/problems of theirs and their followers. Violation of separation of church and state? If so why?

    It's America. If you want to invite them, invite them. If they want to come, let them come. Just make sure they know the others are coming. And I wouldn't advise sitting the Rabbi and the Muslim together, or across from each other. And don't serve peas, or anything that can be thrown. (I'm assuming they'll be fed) Make sure their food choices are respected. It's a jolly idea. Why don't you do it? I'd love to come too, by the way. Thanks for asking. :)

    I wonder there IS someone at the White House with the intellectual capacity to fully understand what these people would say...

    And I don't think this has to do with the separation of church and state. Now, if those people tried to impose that something THEY alone consider important be passed as a law, that would be a violation to the separation. But listening to their problems is not.

    Have you ever considered that the same people who declared seperation of Church and state are the ones who put the Bibles as the main textbook in school. Or that public school was originally instituted in America SOLELY for the purpose of teaching kids to read, so that they could read the Bible. Seperation of Church and State was originally intended to keep the church from being regulated by the government, and it's since been abused by people who are "offended" by the Bible. Funny though, you can still teach the THEORY of evolution in school as if it were a fact, even though there is no solid evidence of it being true...

    Source(s): Oh, um... sorry. To answer your question, i don't think it would be a good idea, not because of seperation of Church and state, but because it would likely be a media ploy if nothing more...

    Ive considered the pitcher interior the 6 or 7 spot final 12 months the place they have been splitting the batting lineup right into a 2-headed monster. ideally you desire to additionally attempt to get a affected person guy till now your pitcher, according to risk a guy gets some walks esspecially while communities desire to flow after the pitcher, so if the pitcher strikes out and additionally you have a guy on base with a robust touch hitter springing up, it is properly worth a roll of the cube.

    Separation of church and state doesn't exist. America was founded on Christianity. You can never separate that TRUTH. "In God We Trust" is still present on the money and on govermental buildings.

    Just don't forget to invite an avowed atheist to make things kosher.

    No it is not...it is not government governing through a religious medium.....it's addressing issues that are concerning groups of religious citizens.

    Well it sounds good but if they handle it in any way like the discussions on Q&A, you can forget about it.
