Government lawyers also told the Strasbourg court that wearing a cross is not a “generally recognised” act of Christian worship...

These "government lawyers" don't seem very bright. I wonder who told them that nonsense.

I would start with the 'Father of Lies' and work your way down from there.

Some people consider it just a piece of jewelry. I have seen Madonna wearing a cross.
Although I think some anti religious wear it more to try to dilute it's meaning.

Now comes the irreconcilable differences in European nation states. There are the Catholic states and the non-Catholic states.

So far they haven't done all that good a job of melding all cultural and religious traditions so that conflict is minimized and this sort of nonsense doesn't end up in court.

To the religious minded person it doesn't matter if the source of the opposition to his behavior or dress comes from non-Catholic, or Catholic, or self-described secular sources.

And that touches on a really big difference between European and American standards of law. There the focus is first on what happens nationally vis a vis the national legal system, and only secondly on what happens to the individual.

You see that so clearly in the legal submissions made in this case ~ in Europe the individual is still a piece of dirt who can be kicked around.

Obamugabe would like that in America which is why he should have been removed long ago. The Democrats had the majorities they needed in Congress to do it, but they didn't.

We must now remove the rest of the Democrats so we can return to our own values and expel the European-minded traitors in our midst ~ whether they come from Indonesia or Mexico ~ it's time for them to go!
