Congress approved First Amendment same week it called for Day of Thanksgiving to Almighty God
Supreme Court Chief Justice Warren Earl Burger stated in the case of Marsh v. Chambers (1982):
"It can hardly be thought that in the SAME WEEK the members of the first Congress VOTED to appoint and pay a CHAPLAIN for each House and also VOTED to approve the draft of the FIRST AMENDMENT ... (that) they intended to forbid what they had just declared ACCEPTABLE."
