To: Chancellor Palpatine
But he didn't establish a state religion. He merely had some words on a monument. He did not require that people swear allegiance to them or anything. The fact is, he can do anything he wants when he isn't on duty and wearing the mantle of office - once he is on duty, however, his speech rights are subordinate to the establishment clause.

He did not violate the establishment clause. No religion was established.

Disagree. One was, and was elevated above all others in the words of Roy Moore.

Some day there will come a time when Christians will have to decide whether they will follow Jesus, the Christ, or bow to the secular god of government. That will be the prelude to the great tribulation which will come upon the believers. We ought to be getting ourselves and our children ready for it. Remember, we are "in the world," not "of the world." Not even in America do we have an abiding city, because this is a temporary way station on the road to heaven.
