The problem is that the American People have been lulled to sleep. We are willing to Tolerate Diversity and Tolerate other religious beliefs to the extent that our own religious beliefs are being CRUSHED.
It is time to wake up and fight back or to enjoy being a Crushee.
I suspect "Crusades II" is in our future. It's just a matter of time.

Court ruling:
The Fourth US Circuit Court of Appeals last year upheld a lower court ruling that prayers before Great Falls Town Council were unconstitutional because they honored one faith over another by mentioning Jesus.
Constitution:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, nor prohibiting the free exercise thereof"
Exactly what does something that a town council do have anything to do with a law passed by Congress? How can it be unconstitutional? Is knowledge of the Constitution still mandatory for someone to become a justice?

Thanks for pinging this Swampy. I saw this earlier today but was at my "sorta job" and didn't have access to the ping list stuff.

I want to see a resolution drafted by one of these city councils telling the ACLU to literally f*ck off. Someone HAS TO tell these un-american jerks just what people think of them.

The Fourth US Circuit Court of Appeals last year upheld a lower court ruling that prayers before Great Falls Town Council were unconstitutional because they honored one faith over another by mentioning Jesus.The ACLU (like all liberals) divides the population into two factions: an abstract "host" population, and "The Other." It then demands in the name of "secularism" that the name of the god of the "Abstract Host Population" not be honored in any way. However, explicity public honor and recognition of the gods of "The Other" merely demonstrates what a tolerant, pluralist, multicultural, secular "paradise" the society is.
Why don't the Black or Eastern and Oriental Churches ever speak up on issues like this?

Do you get the idea that the ACLU is obsessed with its opposition to religion? Oh I don't know if that's true or not:

I hope those councilmembers tell the ACLU to go to hell.
