Oklahoma public university rethinking decision to remove cross from its chapel

The university originally said it would comply with a letter from the Washington, D.C.-based Americans United for Separation of Church and State asking the university to remove the items.

“We moved too quickly,” East Central University President Katricia Pierson said in a Friday statement.

“We regret not taking time to pause and thoughtfully consider the request and the results of our actions on all of the students, faculty and community members who we serve.”

Liberty and justice for all cannot possibly be achieved by man. The Founders knew that man is utterly incapable of governing his fellow man justly, without adhering to God's law. They all understood that the foundations for governmental justice and liberty must stem from the ultimate source of all justice and liberties, id est, Almighty God. A quote from James Madison expressed their beliefs succinctly, “Any country not ruled by the Ten Commandments will be ruled by tyrants.” June 25, 1962 Engle v. Vitale – The Supreme Court of The United States; led by Chief Justice Earl Warren, officially decided, “Prayer in school breaches the constitutional wall of separation between Church and State.” How I wish we still had patriotic men like James Madison in our Nation's Capital to bitchslap imbeciles like Justice Warren when necessary! Church and State were to coexist in a nation ruled by Judeo-Christian principles. The erroneous phrasing of 'separation between Church and State' altogether subverts the Founders declared purpose - Church was to be separated and exempted from governmental authority, as the Founders simply wanted to prohibit the government from imposing any religion on its citizens. They clearly intended a separation between Church from State, and not a strict separation of Church and State!

“In other words, we didn’t expect Trump to get elected and begin appointing a conservative judiciary. We are spineless cowards who acted on the basis of Clinton being elected.”

either that, or they’re a product of US Schools of Education, regardless of what they do now, or both.
