    Yes, I know what they ruled. Do you think every Supreme Court ruling is correct? Dred Scott v. Sandford was the proper decision?

      I mean, you said that most of the country is still christian? So, in a democratic society which is mostly christian there is a motto that references times when even more of the country was christian and the soul of the country was mostly christian?

      Yeah, a huge problem.

          But it does not establish a any religion as a country’s official religion. It’s a remnant of past times.

            The Constitution doesn’t say anything about establishing religion as the country’s official religion.

            There’s a reason teachers aren’t allowed to lead school prayers from any religion and it has nothing to do with what the official religion of the nation is or is not.
