Notice who your little article is referring to -- Chief Justice Warren
Burger. He was in the USSC. There is no "Lemon Test" in Congress.

 RS> You are a theocratic cultist.

You are hilarious. Where you get the idea I'm theocratic is a mystery. I
haven't once said I wanted a theocracy. I'm quite happy with the way things
are now. You and Ceppa making the "cultist" charge is just down
right personal insult based on your ignorance.

 RS> And that congressjerk is full of it.

He may well be, but there is no law that says he can't introduce his pet
bill. There are 434 other members of the House who are full of it and have
introduced some real zany bills. Just look at the current "Hate
Crime" bill being pushed through Congress. They aren't even allowing
any debate on the turkey.

You and your fellow atheists get your panties in a wad for nothing. There
is no chance the bill you are all worried about will get out of committee,
let alone get passed. The bill then has to go for a vote in the Senate and
if it gets passed there (which is even less likely) and then Obama has to
sign it into law.

Now, seriously, do you really think you have anything to worry about?
