Democrats introduce bill to oppose Trump’s proposed Muslim immigration ban

    Please see my article 'Islam is Not a Religion' here: http://thepatriotfactor.blogspot.com/p/islkam-is-not-religion.html I wrote this about 3 or 4 years ago, and I lay out in detail why islam is NOT a religion and some easy ways to get it banned from being considered so in this country, and the long drawn out process of a Constitutional amendment is NOT needed to do so.

    Although I would be delighted if what you said about there being easy ways to get Islam banned without a constitutional amendment declaring that it is not a religion within the meaning of the constitution, I do not believe that you are correct in this. It would be amazing to see a Federal District Judge make such a holding, even though he might want to, and even more amazing to see it upheld on appeal. Like it or not, if Islam is to be given the status as a subversive political ideology that it deserves , and is to be deprived of the protections and privileges given to religions, I believe it will have to be by constitutional amendment.

    Maybe I am wrong, but I have been a lawyer for many years, and I just can't see such a decision being rendered. Possibly after Islam has done many more acts of terror, but even then I doubt that the right combination of courage, wisdom , and knowledge will coalesce in enough Federal Judges for such a holding to be made and upheld.
