Well maybe we should move such matters to public opinion. Instead of having a court hear on Constitutional matters we open it up for a vote. If a majority think that the First Amendment doesn't mean that the government cannot establish Christianity as the "official" religion then so be it. We could open it up to criminal cases as well, put up the guilt or innocence of defendants to a public vote. We could even do it as often as we wanted until we got the verdict that we wanted since we could also vote to end that whole "no double jeopardy" nonsense.
