Re: OT: Atheists are sore losers
Here's a quote from the Supreme Court taken from Turd's link:
-
WASHINGTON -- The U.S. Supreme Court ruled Wednesday that a cross-shaped
veteransâ?? memorial currently covered up by a box in
Californiaâ??s Mojave Desert can stay right where it is.
In a 5-4 decision, the court determined that an act of Congress
transferring the land under the memorial to a veteransâ?? group
was constitutional and additionally noted that â??the Constitution
does not oblige government to avoid any public acknowledgment of
religionâ??s role in society.â?? -
Also, remember, The Supreme Court overturned the lower court in the
"cross case."
