Post #43,661 by Ashton 6/27/02 2:20:30 PM Reply	On NPR now: discussion, debate, fulminations One quote from Const. scholar at Yale: "Rehnquist moving away from the Burger Court's view: From 'strict separation' ---> [something imagined as] 'neutrality'." ie. (my summary of that 'meaning') - this so-called neutraliy is that of , "well.. Everybody Believes in 'god' - Sooo... so as long as we don't focus upon a Particular duelling-version of the Best God.. s'OK for the government to pander to "All Gods". (Of course - what this leaves for the citizens who find God-stuff to lie behind our frequent Warz on everything imaginable is: Opposition. There's no place in This Murica for the non God-besotted) Ashton Wall of Separation kinda Commie Pinko Opposition
Post #43,674 by Brandioch 6/27/02 3:17:57 PM Reply	Is that vaguely reminiscient of "separate but equal"? "Rehnquist moving away from the Burger Court's view: From 'strict separation' ---> [something imagined as] 'neutrality'." Can they be "neutral" without being "strictly separate"? Again, a simple proof would be whether we could get "One nation, under Allah" passed as a suitable replacement for "One nation, under God". It's "neutral" and nothing to worry about WHEN IT IS YOUR GOD who is given preeminence. Them's fightin' words when it the OTHER GUY'S blasphemous misrepresentation is given preeminence and the TRUE GOD isn't even mentioned. ('specially when we happen to be at war with them heathens) It isn't that we be favourin' one side nor that we be SAYIN' that one side be "better". We be "neutral" and they be "equal" to us.
