In the article" North Carolina wants state religion, defying First Amendment" link By Riya Bhattacharjee the author talks about Rowan County, a county that wanted to only have one set religion in the area. Most of the county is made up of Christians, but some citizens were left feeling unwelcome because they believed in a different religious view. The fact that they are trying to do this goes against the first amendment but are still trying to get it passed for the state. Some think it is a good idea and some think it is a shame that they are even trying to consider going through with the plan.
I think it is a shame that they are trying to go through with it because doing so can make a lot of people in the county feel very unwelcome. If it goes through, it can even make the entire state look bad, therefore, many may not even want to associate themselves with North Carolina for that reason. They shouldn't be able to go against the first amendment and they should have to follow the same rules as every one else.
