Arizona state Sen. Sylvia Allen (R) suggested Tuesday that the method legislators should be considering to solve gun problems in America is mandating church attendance.
Sen. Allen said that America needs a “moral rebirth” and if it had one people might be less inclined to own guns. Allen went one step further and said “we should be debating a bill requiring every American to attend a church of their choice on Sunday.”
I believe what’s happening to our country is that there’s a moral erosion of the soul of America.
It’s the soul that is corrupt. How we get back to a moral rebirth I don’t know. Since we are slowly eroding religion at every opportunity that we have. Probably we should be debating a bill requiring every American to attend a church of their choice on Sunday to see if we can get back to having a moral rebirth.
But since that would not be allowed and we would not even be debating that, I’m going to vote yes that people who are responsible who have a CCW permit don’t have to worry about their guns as they’re out and about and doing business in whatever building they’re in except ones that where they aren’t allowed.
State Sen. Steve Farley (D) was there when Allen made her comments and quickly responded.
“Even if you believe that would stem the moral decay, I think the Constitution makes it very clear that our country is founded on the pillar of separation of church and state,” he said.
