    Don't establish. Don't prohibit.

    That's a separation. Its a protection quite honestly

    State established religions are a way for the state to kill people with God's approval. No thanks

    People of all religions and atheists died in our wars. Public money for the Crescent star or whatever our Muslims friends use? I have a feeling there could be an issue

    Separation of church and state doesn't mean what many think it means.

    Okay I'll bite. Worst case we get some classic Sledog one liners. Care to expand?
    I'll bite, Show me that line in the constitution.
    What they (the founders) meant was they was not going to be an official "state" religion in the US, akin to the Church of England or Roman Catholic Church in other places in Europe.

    Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof

    Crosses on memorials on government property gets a little murky, but I don't have an issue with it in this instance.
    Bingo! No state religion. That is it. Nothing else. All this I'm offended shoot needs to stop.

    So Supreme Court rulings and precedent set after 1789 don't mean anything?

    The entire bill of rights is protection. People forget that. That’s what they like to forget.

    The constitution grants no rights.
