Question

Answer the following question in 5-8 sentences:

Do you think there are negative consequences due to the way our country has shifted from religion playing a large role in our government to today where religion is almost not allowed to be discussed and it is controversial when someone from Washington mentions God? If so can you explain what those negative consequences are?

Answer 1

My answer would be yes it has. All you have to do is look back through history itself and see how much worse things have gotten since taking God and religion out of the equation. I respect everyone’s right to practice their own religion as long as it doesn’t require them to harm others who don’t practice the same. But it’s quite obvious that our country was founded on Christianity. The right to freedom of religion was originally intended towards the various denominations of Christianity and Catholicism and when immigrants came here they came here knowing that. Also Christianity teaches good values so why not use it. If it makes the people in power better and more compassionate then why wouldn’t you want it. I will stand by the argument that has historically proven itself beyond dispute. This country was much better before they started banning the use of God and religion.

Answer 2

No

Step-by-step explanation:

I do not think there are negative consequences due to the way our country has shifted from religion playing a large role in our government to today where religion is almost not allowed to be discussed and it is controversial when someone from Washington mentions God because everyone is entitled to their own beliefs and no one can change it if they don't with other people's religions. Yes, there might be sometimes where people get shut down for mentioning God with politics, but you know that not all people have the same religion.
