Don't care. The fact is religion should never be a part of public property. Period.
Says who? you? some tyrannical judge/justice that is clearly ignorant to the Bill of Rights or just interprets the document via their own political philosophies??
These judges, lawyers and justices need to keep their damn personal politics out of the Bill of Rights...
The First Amendment denies theocracy - not religion. If this nation was founded on atheism the framers of the Constitution and Bill of Rights would have just outright banned religion if that was their intent...
It's very simple - our government cannot be theocratic or a theocracy and don't confuse that with the display of religious symbolism.... When our government starts throwing you or anyone in prison for your religious beliefs I will be the first one to get up and fight against that, however that has NEVER happened and NEVER will happen.
In order to understand and interpret our Constitution and Bill of Rights you need to put yourself in the framers of the document(s) shoes and see what they saw happening in their time across the pond in Europe - they saw theocratic persecution, and all the framers (our founding fathers) wanted was freedom from persecution for holding religious views or any ideas..... That is something these dummy justices and judges and some politicians and activists don't understand.
Before one can even begin to even interpret our founding documents they need to understand history first and the geo-politics of the time that led to those founding documents.
Once you fully understand the geo-politics of that time period our founding documents and our founding fathers intentions become quite clear....
