Judaeo-Christian, not Jewish.

Judaeo means Jewish. Judaeo-Christian means Jewish and Christian. What Jewish artifacts do we enshrine?

Sounds like you don't deny the rest.

More like if I haven't implicitly agreed to some of your blather, I probably strongly deny it.

I'm sick and tried of you Christians trying to take over the Government. I won't stand for any infringement of the Government by any religion, Jewish, Christian or Islam.

I don't want to see the Ten Commandments in the rotunda. I don't want to see a Menorah on top of Congress, and I don't want to see the Capital Dome converted to a golden Mosque.

There's prayer in the Congress, why there of all places if it is forbidden by the Constitution?

What prayer in the Congress? I've never seen any prayers conducted in Congress, and I've been in the gallery and am a C-Span junkie. But if there is prayer in Congress it's optional, and no member is forced to say the prayer of another. Not like a school led morning prayer where all students are required to participate.

You are free to practice your religion all you want. You can go to Church or Synagog or Mosque as you wish. You may pray 10 times per day if you wish. But keep your religion out of our government.
