They are using the courts to enforce the constitution.
Debatable. The constitution does not say there will not be religion.
Basically it states there will not be "state religion" ala Church of
England. God is even referenced in the Declaration of Independence.
Religious people also have a right to use public property. It is also
owned by them. This a government of, by, and for the people. Even
atheists can have a display on public property.
Ever hear of separation of church and state?
----------------------------
yup. Where does it state that in the Constitution?
In the first amendment and in interpretations by the supreme court,
neither of which you've probably read for comprehension.
The supremes have made conflicting interpretations over the years. The
first states there will not be State Religion. Even congress has priests.
Do you really think it would be a good thing to have The Church run our
country without checks and balances? That's stupid.
------------------------
Where did I say that? The constitution states that the government will be
hands off religion. Not that there will be no religion.
