But I forgot... separation of church and state means the separation of Christianity from state. How silly of me.
Are you really too obtuse to see the difference between these two scenarios? The muslim youth camp is analogous to one of Bush's "faith based initiatives," whereas the 10 commandments acting as a foundation of law in this Judge's courtroom are him combining religion (10 commandments) with government...
You don't think that a Muslim youth camp is combining religion with government? Like I said, I have no problem with a Muslim camp, a MoonBeamology camp, or any other camp; however, I haven't seen a Christian camp or any other support of Christianity. Freedom of religion is not the same as freedom from the dominant religion.
Not only are you ignorant, you're uninformed! Check it out
And no, a Muslim youth camp is not combining religion with government. Simply because the government sponsors a youth camp that happens to be of one faith or another does not mean that religion is state sponsored or that that religion interferes with, or influences, the government or the governing of the state.
This guy using the 10 commandments as his basis for judgement CLEARLY interferes with his foremost duty to uphold the constitution, NOT the 10 commandments.
Get off your Christian high-horse and look at the facts ...
