Salifou,
You got to decide man. Are for you prayers or not? If you stand for
nothing, you will fall for everything! Of course, the whole idea of
separating the state from the church is the carte blanche that must of
us are now using to perpetrate all acts of indivinity on our children
and against GOD. I fear for some of us.
