JUST IN: Supreme Court rules that a Washington state high school football coach had a right to pray on the field immediately after games, a decision that could lead to more acceptance of religious expression in public schools.

This court has done more to restore the rule of law and restore the Constitution to the way it should be than the court had done in the previous 30 years.

Just for reference:

First Amendment

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

The Establishment Clause is one comma away from the Free Exercise Clause.

Actually not. It's in a letter from Jefferson to the Danbury Baptists.

Establishment clause deals with the prevention of the Government from establishing one lone religion for the country and outlawing the others.

Biden couldn't come out tomorrow and declare that the "Church of The Silly Walks" is the only recognized and official religion of the United States because it violates the establishment clause.

The reality is there is no constitutional "wall of separation."

The first amendment is perfectly clear on the subject IMHO.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; ...

A person praying in public, no matter what his position may be, is not Congress!

Exactly.

And displaying the 10 Commandments in a courtroom doesn't violate the 1st Amendment.

Neither does displaying a nativity scene on the front lawn of city hall.

I quoted the actual First Amendment....I agree there is no "wall of separation" in the Amendment.

In a foundational treatise of checks and balances, smack dab in the middle of the very first amendment are the Establishment and Free Exercise clauses - in of themselves calling for a balance between two extremes.  Our Founding Fathers were brilliant.
