Thanks to Elitist Liberal Scum for this: "Forced religion stinks in the nostrils of God." - Roger Williams (1644), founder of Rhode Island As the story goes, Williams, a Baptist preacher, was chased from the theocracy of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. He landed in Providence in 1636, where he set up a government that favored no religion. He supported a strong separation between church and state. If the state supported, or established, no religion but tolerated all, then no faith would be placed above another.
