You should probably massage the calf instead. That usually seems to help.

Most people get hung up on this and point to this amendment as the justification for separation of church and state. That's not in there. There's also nothing in there that applies to private organizations. That comes later, in the 14th Amendment:
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Something important to note that I stumbled across the deifintion of a person or persons are as follows:
Yet the legal definition of a human being is....
From Ballentine's Law Dictionary, 1948 Edition. 'Human Being' is defined as follows: 'See monster' . From the same dictionary, 'monster' is defined: 'A human-being by birth, but in some part resembling a lower animal.'
This is an unusual definition, but like all Law Dictionaries on this subject, a non-definition. It only states that a 'human being' is a higher animal. It is not found anywhere in Scripture that a Christian Man or Woman is an animal or part of the animal kingdom. This being the case, then what exactly is a 'human being.'
From the Oxford New English Dictionary of 1901, 'human' is defined as, '3. Belonging or relative to man as distinguished from God or superhuman beings; pertaining to the sphere or faculties of man (with implication of limitation or inferiority); mundane; secular. (Often opposed to divine.)'

So legally...human beings are monsters and also can be considered corporations.
Now how crazy is that ?
So technically we as people are also Monsters Inc.
Ballentines is not actual law, its a lawyers dictionary with definitions.
Any living or non living thing can be a monster as long as it is outside of mans extreme normal perspective, physically and mentally.
Human apprehension of life, related to current human circumstances are labels, projected by man only to understand what's not recognized.
Rawwwr...
Yes I know its a legal definition dictionary and not law, which is why I pointed this out...technically by legal defintion we are both corporations and monsters.
It just goes to show how retarded legal definitions are and that any argument provided is at the discretion of the interpretation of those presiding over it.

The B.S. Abuse in the legal system is only as good as the smell.
Hence, the true scent is concealed with a fragrance, from a manifold of fringed sources.
Decoding adaptations will sway facts, unfortunately.
Same with religion.

The lack of belief in any metaphysical.. whatever, is Agnosticism.
From talking to my agnostic friend, it's more complicated than that. Agnosticism can include the belief that there may be Gods out there, it's just impossible to prove or disprove it at this time. Atheism is possibly closer to lack of belief in the metaphysical than Agnosticism is from what I understand, since Agnosticism does not rule out deities entirely like Atheism does. Not that I do understand these lines of man's thoughts, being a religious man myself.
