When a huge majority favors one religion, and the slogans of that religion adorn secular halls of justice, or other places of government, there is a weight to the coerciveness of the propaganda that cannot be overlooked, and that not only oppresses the minority, but makes the majority think the oppression is justified, and has the imprimatur of government behind it, and makes the oppressor ever more eager to add further entanglements. If you do not see it that way, we'll just have to disagree.
