Well, I am NOT a constitutional scholar, but I do love history and believe that I am as well read in American History as any average American and probably more then most. It is patently obvious that our forefathers DID believe in a HIGHER BEING and that they had no problem with emblems or other paraphanelia (sp?) supporting that believe. What they were AGAINST was any GOVERNMENT TELLING A CITIZEN that HE/SHE had to have that same feeling, or adopt that same religion. But manger scenes do NOT specify a specific Christian religion and the Commandments are good rules to live by regardless of religion or even if one has NO religion. I think our liberal courts have attempted to make a MOUNTAIN out of a molehill, or as they say at this time of year, throw the baby out with the bathwater. jdn
