"As far as I can see, again excluding gov't time/money/property, no Christians are being prevented from worshipping whenever they please."

The government's time and money aren't at issue. Therefore 2/3 of your point are invalid. The government owns the majority of property in America, so yes, there is a very signficiant prohibition against religions.

And yes...this prohibition is what you're supporting.

You have not demonstrated the ability to consider the meaning of removing all things that allude to religion from government property. You're focused on some flawed, and non-existant attempt toward the establishment of religion that supposedly exists in a work of art that merely has a Biblical theme.

It's not there.

You seem to be experiencig severe cognitive dissonance. Fractional division is irrelevant to the particular matter at hand, so do try and remain topical, hmmmm?

Kindly conduct yourself to the next state park, for example. Once there, begin to pray. Or, if it better suits you, read your bible. You will find no officer of the state preventing you from doing so.

And yes...this prohibition is what you're supporting.

Again, you are not prohibited from worship on gov't property, thus such an example cannot be used to further detail some bogeyman paradigm about prohibition of religion or the free exercise thereof.

Certainly I can consider such a concept. In the case in Alabama, however, your point is irrelevant.

. You're focused on some flawed, and non-existant attempt toward the establishment of religion that supposedly exists in a work of art that merely has a Biblical theme.

I see you are utterly unaquainted with either Judge Moore, his statements or the case in general. It's not there.
