I've seen all the Andy Griffith shows multiple times (still watch them). The end of this show, Arnold's father is offered a nice woodshed to visit by Andy. In today's world, Arnold's father could be arrested and Andy may face charges for being an accomplice.

Good video though and it does show a lefty lean.

The principal that has made America great is not conservativism, but it is the separation of church and state.  The conservative religious right is trying to tear down the wall of separation between church and state.   The result will be tyranny and persecution.

If we get technical???  This also raises an interesting question.  Maybe Eddie Murphy should petition for the academy to look at Norbitt again.  He may have a best actress award coming.

The only thing Norbitt was nominated for was makeup and worst picture.

Where in the Constitution does it say there is a separation of church and state?

The establishment clause pretty much dictates that the government(any government) cannot show preference for any one religion over any other.   Thus, any act which appears to push a particular religion, is unconstitutional.   In that way, church is separated from state.  Got it?

Many of our laws and values are based in Christian beliefs.

Show me a supreme court decision that agrees with you.

It has nothing to do with the Supreme Court. What you say is not what the Constitution states about it.  The Constitution does not say there is a separation between church and state.
