I confess you're the first advocate of govt religion to be principled enough to support all religions. Most of your brethren are only referring to Christianity.

It would appear you don't know very many Christians. None of the Christians I know personally (and that would be a rather large number, btw) advocate any government religion of any persuasion, let alone one restricted to the Christian faith alone.

Most would not 'fess up that they seek active government support of religion. But to me, someone who insists that public schools inculcate "Christian" values "because we are a Christian nation" is indeed seeking government religion.

IMHO most supporters of school prayer have Christian prayers in mind. I doubt that they would look upon Wiccan activities as acceptable. They have certainly howled loudly about the U.S. Army chaplains allowing and supporting Wiccan ceremonies (Ft. Hood? I can't recall.) Now, if they support all religion, why did they complain about this?
