4. nnah it didn't work, but the guillotine has created 200 years of peace
in France

just kidding... even if there is kind of a truth in it. The French Revolution was anticlerical, because the priests sided with the power. In the US the priests sided with the new power, you see where it leads.

The first measure I'll take if I was a president backed by a congress majority, is to abolish the tax deduction for ALL churches and propose a clear amendment of separation. After a couple of years they would STFU.
