Hillarie Goldstein: Massachusetts Senate bill would violate church and state separation

To The Daily Sun, 

Senate Bill 2134 has been introduced in Massachusetts, to form an 11-member permanent commission on Islam for the purpose of expanding and promoting Islamic values within the state government of Massachusetts at all levels. If this bill passes, it puts an end to the separation of church and state and makes the State of Massachusetts identify itself with Islam. It could have disastrous effects.

For one thing, it's a clear violation of the First Amendment prohibition against establishing religion. And it's well known that radical Islamists hate our culture and attacked us on 9/11. Why enshrine them permanently into any state government? Similar measures are being taken in Maine, Texas and Minnesota.

If this letter is published, many will say I sound prejudiced. I am prejudiced — in favor of not handing over our states to people who hate us. To see more about this, go to WRKO/Kuhner. Jeff Kuhner has been talking about this on his morning talk show. His information is documented and verifiable.
