Establishment of religion is an affirmative act by a People (in the West, through an act of legislation) to set one church above the others and to require all, including non-members, to pay for the expenses of said, "established" church

Thank you for sharing your opinion.

The US Supreme Court disagrees with you.

But they are wrong.

It is always a mistake to exercise arbitrary power to dominate a majority. The politicians of this country's principal responsibility is to prevent the boys in blue and the boys in gray from shooting each other in the woods and fields.

Absurd Supreme Court concoctions like Everson and Roe do not accomplish their supposed purpose-they hasten the day the next civil war begins.

And all that is necessary (for the Court to do) is to read "establishment of religion" to mean establishment of religion, a familiar subject in the world of 1789.

Pathetic.
