The people who have decided to be wrong can't stand them because they point out their wrongness.<BR/>The thing that is being overlooked is that the freedom of religeon clause of the constitution never ensured that anyone be insulated from religeon, only that the government will not set up an official religeon.<BR/>The words "Seperation of Church and State" never appear in the original constitution.tugboatcapnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14751281215697965077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12507451.post-1119934539063815272005-06-28T00:55:00.000-04:002005-06-28T00:55:00.000-04:002 decisions and nothing was decided.......Neither ...2 decisions and nothing was decided.......Neither one was definitive, and both leave much open for debate --> Otherwise known as never ending lawsuits.<BR/><BR/>The Supremes failed miserably on this day, and the only winners are the lawyers........Per normalPoison Perohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03719658237554227638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12507451.post-1119904989239930462005-06-27T16:43:00.000-04:002005-06-27T16:43:00.000-04:00You're absolutely right.

It doesn't matter who gets appointed to those judicial seats as long as the Supreme Court operates as a legislative branch of government rather than a judicial one.<BR/><BR/>It's sickening to think that we have strayed so far from what our founding fathers intended when they wrote the Constitution. Our country was founded on religious freedom, but I doubt our ancestors intended what we have today. <BR/><BR/>I never have understood why The Ten Commandments seem so offensive. There's nothing in them that people should be against. Everyone should know them whether or not they are posted, just because they are good rules for living--not because they are religious rules. <BR/><BR/>There's nothing wrong with honoring God and being good to your fellow man--and that's all the Ten Commandments are really about.Daffy76https://www.blogger.com/profile/01410962054554919573noreply@blogger.com
