Summer is here at last!!! May I be the first to wish you
a Happy and Holy 4th of July. Some people see this celebration as the primary secular
holiday of the year. But when we look back to the origin of this celebration we
have to note that it has a religious basis.
It is the anniversary of the signing of the Declaration
of Independence which in the first ten lines mentions God twice. And when we go
on to read the Amendments to the Constitution we see that the First Amendment addresses
the right to the free practice of religion. The government was seen as responsible
to see that no particular religion would be forced on the people nor would the free
(responsible) exercise of religion be in any way curtailed.
