Until Everson is overruled, church-state jurisprudence will become increasingly incoherent.

Supreme Court justices, and the class they came from, probably thought religion in public life would disappear in 30-40 years, and that they were just laying the groundwork for the inevitable.

But they were wrong, and their "erection of a wall of separation" is going to have to go.

Anyway you want to put it, the leftists will interpret the reason for that wall the way THEY want it, NOT the way Thomas Jefferson meant it to be: THAT THE STATE MAY NOT INTERFERE WITH THE CHURCH.
A persons faith cannot be checked at the door, it is an integral part of that person. And the State has no business meddling with that faith.
