Putting up a statue or monument doesn’t constitute such an act in any case. Even if Congress enacted a bill to put a statue of Jesus in the Capitol Rotunda that would not be establishing a state religion. It would be establishing a Congressional decoration of the Capitol.

I'd say that we're in agreement on P1 & P2 of yours, plus you've given me, in P3, that which makes the post worthwhile to ME! Thank You

You're welcome. I'm glad you like it!

I argued that a lot about Roy Moore and his TC monument but even here on FR it seemed that not many got it. A rock, a piece of art at best, is not a religion. And it certainly isn't a law as it establishes nothing in any legal sense. Without a doubt you could say that it honors a religion but that in no way makes it a state decree compelling anyone to be observant of that religion.

If the mere sight of a religious object established law then we'd be a nation of subtext not a nation of written laws. A nation of hints and suggestions.

I suggest that if libtards, atheists and secular humanists feel that vulnerable to subliminal stimuli they need to go live in darkened caves far away from normal people. ;-)
