From the article: Even though the SCOTUS decision was a pitiful interpretation of the Separation Clause, which only prohibited the establishment of a state religion, they sent a clear message that religion and its values should not appear anywhere near our citizenry.

Someone must challenge this decision and rectify this injustice. Our country is desperately in need of revitalizing our spiritual and religious climate, and our important institutions should support that effort.

Good luck with that. The Muslim contingent makes this most problematic.

The Kentucky case cited in this article is a terrible example for the author to use. If anything, it demonstrates that these arguments completely miss the bigger point. The problem isn’t the secularization of public institutions. The problem is that most of these public institutions shouldn’t even exist at all.

Public schools, for example, have no place in a free nation.

“Good luck with that. The Muslim contingent makes this most problematic.”

Exactly right. Over 50% of the population of this country is at least sympathetic to Muslims over Christians. Government imposed religion is NOT going to be Christian for very long if it is indeed instated.

Right now separation very well could be helping protect Christianity from forced Islam. We impose a State Religion and we might not like what we actually do end up with because of the numbers. And it would eventually extend to the legal system and Sharia law will be imposed.

I think we might be careful what we ask for... It is most likely to backfire and be even worse.
