...so basically if we act as if we are ignorant as to what it stands for, it's OK - but once we act as though it actually stands for something more than just historical purposes, it isn't...

...Just like what the government wants us to be, ignorant. To stand by and allow them to take all of our rights away from us one by one. Beware of what might be taken away; you may never get it back.


What irritates me is that it was okay for Texas to have the 10 commandments on federal land (great news, IMO), but it isn't okay to have them in the court of law.

What is it that some people are so afraid of, highball?? Is it that we might believe in something that means nothing but good, and that only good can come from it, if it is followed?

People are afraid of a state religion.

Judging by both past history and the current state of the Church of England, everyone darn well ought to be afraid of that.
