Title: Faith Based Initiative
Post by: cudakidd53 on April 22, 2015, 05:55:46 PM

Okay, let's scratch our souls and our grey matter at the same time:

You're supreme authority of the US for a day, and whatever law you come up with gets passed and becomes reality, but you can only pick one, and it needs to be faith based- what do you do?

Mine-

In order to collect Welfare, you and every dependent you claim, must attend church together every week.  (Church, Synagogue, Mosque [outta wedlock mothers last there?] etc.).   Don't want to, don't collect- kids don't want to, no credit for them.

I guess you could say this is faith based...

I'm not sure how it would go down, but I'd do something to protect individuals and businesses from being forced to engage in commerce with parties they don't wish to do business with (on the grounds of morality, religious beliefs, etc). I think that's a basic principle of the free market economy.

In the spirit of politics, I'd also tag on a mandate somewhere buried in the footnotes of the bill, that every school room to say the Pledge of Allegiance, in it's entirety, every day.

Crimes committed against patriots and veterans would hold the same "Hate Crime" status as crimes against gays currently do.

Further any veteran would have the right to immediately interdict any disrespectful usage or display of our flag

Follow the Constitution to the LETTER. If if isn't THERE, to bad.

All great ideas that I agree with, but what about FAITH based law, I mean if we're pretending we get to be supreme leader, let's cross the church and state divide.

Along the lines of WWJD or want done?

Well I'm probably more secular, and a constitutional conservative, and a Christian. So while I think we all should try to be more like Jesus, our Constitution and Bill of Rights would preserve the choice of individuals to do so, even under my supreme rule. So, specifically to answer your question, I'm struggling to find something that I would make law.  :o
