I was in a class about how to teach Vacation Bible school the day when the last Supreme Court decision permitting it was announced. We went around the table, and all held that it was a horrible decision: except me.
I said "My Bible says that "You will have no other G-ds before me." Medieval law divided authority into the Sacred, the subject of Church Courts, and the Profane, the subject of various Government Courts. The Flag of the Government would be a Profane symbol, and could not be desecrated, as it was not Sacred."
Having said that, I will say that the proper way to burn the flag is to use scissors to separate the blue Union canton from the stripes. After that, it is no longer the national flag, and it should be burned respectfully, in memory of the symbol it once was.
Really doesn't matter as long as its my flag.
