West: The false gods of Leftism

Approved, Commentary, National / / ,

You often hear leftists rant on about the “separation of church and state,” with the goal being the separation of America’s Judeo-Christian faith heritage from itself.

Jefferson knew very well of the lesson from England of King Henry VIII. Who, when denied a divorce by the Catholic Church, created his very own religion and persecuted those who did not worship him as both Head of State and Head of Church. That even included his most trusted advisor, Thomas More, who was beheaded.
