“I don't think we should discriminate against an organization or congregation because they're religious, if they're doing good work. But government can't subsidize proselytizing or worship or religious activity.

“Compelling a man by law to pay his money to elect candidates or advocate law or doctrines he is against differs only in degree, if at all, from compelling him by law to speak for a candidate, a party, or a cause he is against.

“The cult of the omnipotent state has millions of followers in the united States. Americans of today view their government in the same way as Christians view their God; they worship and adore the state and they render their lives and fortunes to it. Statists believe that their lives - their very being - are a privilege that the state has given to them. They believe that everything they do is - and should be - dependent on the consent of the government. Thus, statists support such devices as income taxation, licensing laws, regulations, passports, trade restrictions, and the like.” WayShouldBelieveStatesGovernmentTodayChristianLawGivenUnitedViewsMillionsUnited StatesSupportWorshipTradeFortunePrivilegeIncomeDependentDevicesFollowersRegulationConsentCultAdoreTaxationRestrictionIncome TaxPassportsOmnipotentLicensing Book:The tyranny of gun control Source: The tyranny of gun control
“People look at me in many ways. They've said, 'The guy has no regard for money.' That is not true. I have had regard for money. It depends on who's saying that. Some people worship money as something you've got to have piled up in a big pile somewhere. I've only thought about money in one way, and that is to do something with it. I don't think there's a thing I own that I will ever get the benefit of except through doing things with it. I don't even want the dividends from the stock in the studio, because the government's going to take it away. I'd rather have that in (the company) working.” PeopleThinkingWayWantLooksSaidBigsGovernmentGuyCompanyDependsBenefitsWorshipRegardStudiosOne WayLook At MeDividends Author:Walt Disney
“We have devoted ourselves to the government and extension of the Church, and, among other objects, we have conceived it to be our duty to foster especially literature and the fine arts ... next to knowledge and true worship of the Creator, nothing is better or more useful to mankind than such studies.” ArtGovernmentNextLiteratureChurchStudyMankindObjectsDutyFineWorshipCreatorDevotedExtensionsFine ArtsTrue Worship Author:Pope Leo X
“This issue is whether or not our government should be infusing religion into the public schools. Our churches are very strong in this nation and I think that's great and everybody should have the ability to worship as he or she sees fit. I choose to worship not believing in God and government should not thrust a religious idea down my throat.” ThinkingShouldBelieveIdeasGovernmentSchoolStrongNationsChurchReligiousAbilityIssuesAtheismFitWorshipShould HavePositive AtheismBelieve In GodThroatVery StrongPublic SchoolThrust Author:Michael Newdow
