Thomas Moore Law Centers files a friend of the court brief...
Read the details of this here...I think you'll find this interesting; it should certainly provoke some thought. I've had differing opinions on this type of thing over the years as I've read more and increased my understanding.
Based on the strict language of the Constitution, there is nothing that prevents the display of religious or other material in public places. The Constitution forbids the state from creating and/or sponsoring a religion (aka the Anglican Church of England) or repressing the freedom of expression of religious viewpoints. It does not and never did intend to create a complete separation or absence of God or religion in our Government.
Most of our founding principles derive from or are based on the Judeo-Christian ethic of the Founding Fathers - to divorce our government from its roots is to separate it from that which makes a humane government. To deny the deep religious foundations of our democracy would be to create a 'machine' of a state, not very dissimilar from the Soviet Union or the Communist China.
I've believe that this is part of a deliberate attack on the foundations of our government by the ACLU and other socialist/communist leaning groups. What units the organizations and informs their viewpoint? The perspective that the State is supreme, and the State is a jealous god, and will tolerate no belief in a power higher than the State
