And then the 14th Amendment came along.

>>>And then the 14th Amendment came along.<<<

And then came along the unanimous 1892 ruling of the United States Supreme Court, in Church of the Holy Trinity vs. United States, which stated:

". . . this is a religious people. This is a Christian nation", adding, "Our laws and our institutions must necessarily be based upon and embody the teachings of the redeemer of mankind. It is impossible for it to be otherwise; in this sense and to the extent our civilization and our institutions are emphatically Christian."

So much for the ACLU's interpretation of the 14th.
