Hard to understand how the resolution is not a violation of the Establishment Clause.

I suppose they can flap their diseased lips all they please about how “hateful” the church is. What weight does a “resolution” really have? The question is, will they get up enough courage to actually ban Catholicism from the city? Now THAT would violate the Establishment Clause!

Don't you know that liberals interpret the establishment clause as a mandate for the government to be hostile to all religion? According to the gAy-CLU interpretation, the first amendment only forbids the government from endorsing religion, not in condemning it!

It is a violation of the free exercise clause, not the establishment clause, I think.

Hard to understand how the resolution is not a violation of the Establishment Clause. If it doesn't violate the "establishment" clause, it violates the clause immediately following that one: "...or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."
