WHAT? Okay. Somebody must be 'punkin' me. First there was something that I agreed with that alcee hastings said and now the 9th circus court ruled that a statue of Jesus can stay? Am I in the twilight zone? Of course the 9th only had a 3 judge panel so if and when the full court hears the appeal, they may overturn the 3 judge ruling. If not, the supremes probably will.

I just invented a theory ...

The Trump revolution has put some trepidation in the hearts of the rebellious black robed.

Innocent question, how can you make a graven image? Is this Catholic or Protestant?

The court appears to say, “Since there is no know description of the physical attributes of Jesus of Nazareth, The Christ, then what you see is a statue of -simply- a man.

Unless, of course, you might call it “The Zig-Zag Man”?

Won’t we all be surprised when we get to Heaven and find out Jesus looks like [CAUTION: hyperbolic speculation]
Danny DeVito?

The memorial was erected by surviving members of the 10th Mountain div. who had seen similar memorials while fighting during WWII -in Europe. The Memorial is a reflection of that. The memorial to the 10th Mtn. Div. has stood where it does on Big Mtn. for 60 yrs. There is NOT one jot nor tittle of American Law justly published as our first Amendment that requires a godless government.The Crap about a Constitutional prohibition against any government endorsement of religion was a test of logical skill invented by Justice Sandra Day O. to reconcile the FRAUD perpetrated by the Ku Klux Klansman Hugo black since 1947 Everson v. Board of Edu. (that misleading Metaphor) to the Failed and disappointing Lemon test.invented int he 70’s None of which support the First Amendment.

It was a good article to read.

The statue is on private land at the Big Mountain Ski Area (Flathead lake area). The statue is six feet tall.

The fingers of Our Lady of the Rockies are six feet long:

You aint removing Our Lady from the Continental Divide!

In an excerpt from the ruling:

Jesus is just alright with me
Jesus is just alright, oh yeah!
Jesus is just alright with me
Jesus is just alright, oh yeah!!!!!

...NOR shall the free expression thereof be prohibited. Period.

I am sick to death of the atheists and communists who misrepresent the establishment clause while totally ignoring the prohibition clause.
I had a conversation about this yesterday with a 60 year old woman. She had no clue and did not want it explained to her. Yet she was complaining that the people in power are violating our rights.
