that entire clause is messed up. . . .. posted by shadowfax on Tuesday, June 20, 2000, at 18:55:37:
The thing is, "separation of church and state" didn't mean the same thing 200 years ago as the government is trying to make it mean now. Just because the government can't support a church doesn't mean that if you are in a school (government funded) that you are to leave your religion at the door. The whole point of religion is having a guideline for living your life and everyone has a different opinion. Different opinions are the backbone of our country.
> separation of church and state is a myth. We have every president running around saying "god bless america," "in got we trust" stamped on every coin and bill, and my dad's state bar certificates (he has three), all of them stampsigned by the supreme court justices of those states, talks about the year he got licensed as "the year of our Lord" . . . yet a couple of kids can't pray if they want to at a football game. Gimme a break.
