oh dear- I posted before I read you. Clearly me and I and you are impressed by the same things. Why am I not surprised?

I have been having trouble with my daughter singing Battle Hymn of the Republic at her public school. What do you think. Here are the lyrics.

The Battle Hymn of the Republic

by Julia Ward Howe

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord;
He is trampling out the vintage where grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword,
His truth is marching on.

Glory, glory, hallelujah! Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah! His truth is marching on.

I have seen Him in the watchfires of a hundred circling camps;
They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps;
I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps,
His day is marching on.

Glory, glory, hallelujah! Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah! His truth is marching on.

He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat;
He is sifting out the hearts of men before His Judgement Seat.
Oh! Be swift, my soul, to answer Him, be jubilant, my feet!
Our God is marching on.

Glory, glory, hallelujah! Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah! His truth is marching on.

In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea,
With a glory in his bosom that transfigures you and me;
As he died to make men holy, let us die to make men free,
While God is marching on.

Glory, glory, hallelujah! Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah! His truth is marching on.

Nope! I don't believe astrology has anything to do with
separation of church and state unless a teacher
discovers that the student studies astrology instead of
mathematics or another required subject during class or
a study period.! (g)

Look at the article, "A Badly Flawed Election" by Ronald Dworkin in
The New York Review of Books, January 11, 2001, P. 53.

"The 2000 election has finally ended, but in the worst possible way--
not with a national affirmation of democratic principle but by the fiat of
the five conservative Supreme Court justices……….."
