Jay Sekulow and the American Center for Law and Justice is probably going to pick this case up.

Ditto, and i was going to a Lutheran school at the time.

there was no mention of the "relationship" between it and Christianity

Not so much. More often than not, I agree with what the ACLU does.

I'd have a better opinion of the ACLU if they really supported an "all comers" approach to civili liberties. But, despite the lofty ideals, it seems they uniformly support causes and cases that have a definite agenda.

They are far more likely to be for barring use of an allegory like Lion than they are to be for, say, guaranteeing the rights of a religious person to a public meeting room.

Heaven forbid theres a well-written book that people love to read being accused of such BS as this.


This is why I don't watch TV OR stop at crosswalks near protests.
