Judge: ACLU not 'reasonable'
Court whacks civil-liberties group, OKs Ten Commandments display
..
A U.S. appeals court today upheld the decision of a lower court in allowing
the inclusion of the Ten Commandments in a courthouse display, hammering the
American Civil Liberties Union and declaring, "The First Amendment does not
demand a wall of separation between church and state."
Attorneys from the American Center for Law and Justice successfully argued
the case on behalf of Mercer County, Ky., and a display of historical
documents placed in the county courthouse. The panel voted 3-0 to reject the
ACLU's contention the display violated the Establishment Clause of the
Constitution.
The county display the ACLU sued over included the Ten Commandments, the
Mayflower Compact, the Declaration of Independence, the Magna Charta, the
Star Spangled Banner, the National Motto, the Preamble to the Kentucky
Constitution, the Bill of Rights to the U. S. Constitution and a picture of
Lady Justice.

REally? Where? Your article indicates a lack of common sense and
regard for precedence.

A biased and disrepuatble source.

Actually, it does. Otherwise you end up with entanglement of
government and religion, with some particular belief system getting
favoritism over the others. That is why the judiciary has consistantly
ruled against overt religious displays.
Attorneys from the American Center for Law and Justice successfully argued
the case on behalf of Mercer County, Ky., and a display of historical
documents placed in the county courthouse. The panel voted 3-0 to reject the
ACLU's contention the display violated the Establishment Clause of the

A contention that is perfectly in line with the Establishment Clause
and precedence.
The county display the ACLU sued over included the Ten Commandments, the
Mayflower Compact, the Declaration of Independence, the Magna Charta, the
Star Spangled Banner, the National Motto, the Preamble to the Kentucky
Constitution, the Bill of Rights to the U. S. Constitution and a picture of
Lady Justice.
Interestingly, the Bill of Rights effectively states that the Ten
Commandments should not be included. However, you refuse to
acknowledge that your religious beliefs have no place in our secular
government.

And I, as a humanist, demand equal presentation of the Humanist Manifesto.
Several Wiccan friends of mine are already organizing to force posting of
the Rede in Washington State courts.

you continue to demonstrate your ignorance of usenet newsgroups,
scumball, and your disrespect for readers' ability to decide for
themselves what is and is not appropriate.
do you feel like a hypocrite criticizing others for doing what you do?
