The “Separation of Church and State” was originally designed to keep the United States Government from being able to push one religion over another, but these rules have been completely bastardized by brainless anti-religion liberals and Anarchists to mean that anything that the government touches cannot have any religious input.

The jackasses on the left know that the current way they have been using the law is not correct, but the people on the right are complete pussies who will not stand up for their rights until their rights have been taken away; then the pussy conservatives will finally speak up.

While the left takes away our rights, the nutless conservative pussies are too weak to do anything to stop them.

A Florida ministry that feeds the poor said the USDA told them they would not be allowed to receive government food unless they removed portraits of Christ, the Ten Commandments, a banner that read “Jesus is Lord” and stopping giving Bibles to the needy.

“They told us they could no longer allow us to have any religious information where the USDA food is going to be,” said Kay Daly, executive director of the Christian Service Center.

So why did the USDA have an issue with the religious group’s religious decorations? Daly said they were told it was a matter of separation of church and state.

A USDA spokesperson told me that “under current law, organizations that receive USDA nutrition assistance can still engage in religious activities so long as the activity is not used to create a barrier to eligible individuals receiving food.”

The USDA referred to an Executive Order providing equal protection for faith-based organizations. That order guarantees those groups the right to provide assistance without “removing or altering religious art, icons, scriptures or other symbols from these facilities.”

For the past 31 years, the Christian ministry has been providing food to the hungry in Lake City, Fla. without any problems. But all that changed when the USDA showed up to negotiate a new contract.

For the past 31 years, the Christian ministry has been providing food to the hungry in Lake City, Fla. without any problems. But all that changed when the USDA showed up to negotiate a new contract.

“The USDA rep told us there was a slight change in the contract,” Daly told me. “They said we could no longer have religious information where the USDA food is being distributed. They told us we had to take that stuff down.”

Daly said it’s no secret that the Christian Service Center is a Christian ministry.

“We’ve got pictures of Christ on more than one wall,” she said. “It’s very clear we are not social services. We are a Christian ministry.”

Daly and her staff sat in stunned disbelief as the government agents also informed them that the Christian Service Center could no longer pray or provide Bibles to those in need. The government contract also forbade any references to the ministry’s chapel.

“We asked if we had to change the name of the organization but that said we could leave that,” Daly said. “But we had to take our religious stuff down.”

The USDA extended an olive branch to the Christians. They said they could continue distributing USDA food so long as it was somewhere else on the property – away from anything that could be considered religious.

In other words – the USDA was giving the Christian Service Center a choice: choose God or the government cheese.

So in a spirit of Christian love and fellowship, Daly politely told Uncle Sam what they could do with their cheese.

“We decided to eliminate the USDA food and we’re going to trust God to provide,” she told me. “If God can multiply fish and loaves for 10,000 people, he can certainly bring in food for our food pantry so we can continue to feed the hungry.”

In a nutshell, Daly said the Christian Service Center would not be compromising.

“We are a Christian ministry,” she said. “Our purpose is to help people in need and to share the gospel of Jesus Christ. We are going to pray with them. We are going to offer them a Bible. We are going to counsel them in Christian help. We are going to use our chapel.”

Churches across Lake City have stepped up to the challenge – filling the void left when the government took away their cheese.

“I’m called to do what the Lord tells me to do,” Daly said. “I’m not called to worry about it. I pray about it. The Lord answers our prayers and we move forward one day at a time, one person at a time.”
