Well, I agree with or at least understand some of their gripes, but I take issue with their "solution." What they want to do is get a bunch of people to move to SC, declare residency, and vote. In this way, state by state, they hope to "reclaim" America, somehow.

I have ethical misgivings about this, for one, and for another, I don't see how it could possibly work. In one sense, it's like the "Don't buy gas on Wednesday" e-mails. Even if people actually participate, the result is shortlived if it's felt at all.

The battle for the hearts and minds of the gentiles is not won in Congress.

As for why they would quote the first amendment: I think the point is that many Christians feel as if they are being restricted from the "free exercise" of their religion.
