What an idiot...
That is an insult to idiots everywhere.

Unlike the UK the state and church are separate in the U.S. I don't think that your Founding Fathers aCW were particularly keen to enshrine the same kind of theocratic doctrine and control that they had escaped from in Europe.
Probably very wise too.
Religion is the power to control, something recognised by Karl Marx too I believe.
Because you may believe that aCW doesn't actually make it true, in fact I believe you are in all probably wrong.The important thing to remember is that we as a nation are given rights from God, not from man.
Clearly then not all of us have since moved on from the days of burning witches, heretics and demonic possession aCW.Unalienable vs Inalienable Rights

Regarding homosexuality:
It's already been discussed how the Founding Fathers felt about homosexuality (like God, they abhorred it, in fact Jefferson proposed a bill to castrate homosexuals).

Perhaps we should try to be more enlightened and tolerant these days, not ignorant, scared, homophobic and cruel?
Thomas Jefferson actually advocated dismemberment of homosexuals in Virginia, perhaps you would like to let him be our guide today aCW?

If you say our rights "come from God", you are actually saying that YOU want to decide what our rights are . Where has "God" specified our rights ? Nowhere .
If you're opposed to same sex marriage and claim that God does not want same sex couples to have the right to marry, you're just saying that YOU don't want same sex marriage to be illegal .
Has God come down from heaven and told us gay people should not be allowed from marriage . Not that I've heard .
Remember this quote by Susan B. Anthony : " I distrust those who claim to know so well what God wants them to do, since I notice it always coincides with their own desires ."
That is an insult to idiots everywhere.
There's no escaping the fact that some people just are LGBTBLT whatever, whether you like it or not aCW. That being the case should the potential might of a majority make it right for them to conclude that subjugation of a minority is reasonable?I didn't say that our rights from God, the great men who founded this constitutional republic stated it in their personal letters, speeches and more importantly in our country's founding documents.
My point is: nowhere did the founders of this once great nation ever indicate that a sexual perversion such as homosexuality is some kind of "right" (they found the subject itself so disgusting that it wasn't to be mentioned in decent company). The people who are being persecuted by the government backed LGBTQueer/NAMBLA movement for speaking out against homosexuality are the ones who were given unalienable rights, i.e. the right to worship God freely without being persecuted.
If you're going to claim that the Constitution of the United States is on the side of a bunch of drag queens, bull dykes and fairies, then you couldn't be more wrong (but then why ruin a perfectly good record on being wrong).
