Yep, arguing with yourself again I see. The phrase "a wall of separation between church and state" comes not from the constitution but from a letter written by Thomas Jefferson to Nehemiah Dodge! Do you also think we should protect the minority from having to read the dreaded English language signs dotting our America too. Or should we remove every sign for fear of outcasting a non-English speaking American. Michael

CB, when I was growing up in Washington D.C. as a significant minority in my Junior High school, I learned to deal with a lot of things I didn't particularly like. It's simply a part of life. And I believe it made me more tolerant of other peoples cultural traditions. Have you ever really stopped and thought about how many religios traditions happen in the public square in America? And what defines a public square exactly? Would a college 40% subsidized by the state define it? One day I'll have to make a list. Michael
