"Judge drops all charges against Philly Christians" restores some semblance of sanity, this judge saw through the legal antics of those who would silence Christians. It is a rare piece of good news.

"Impeach Judge Napoleon Jones!" is on a nearly opposite note. This activist judge is on a crusade to remove the Boy Scouts from the public life over which he presides. The ACLU is eager to help him, with their well demonstrated hatred of all things Christian. Apparently city governments cannot form partnerships with the Boy Scouts to fund and maintain public parks.

"City appeals Commandments removal" is not primarily about that judge in Mississippi, as you might expect. Rather, it appears a similar thing is happening in Wisconsin. The local government there took what seems to me an unusual step in avoiding the necessity of removing the monument: it sold the monument and the land to a non-profit. Apparently even though this has worked in other cases, it is again being challenged. Good luck to those fighting to keep awareness of our Christian heritage alive.

This is part of a disturbing trend that David Limbaugh has spent considerable time documenting. There are consistent efforts to broaden the "Wall of Separation" that Jefferson wrote of. Somewhere recently I read about when this became precedent in the US Supreme Court, I am going to have to find that article again. Ah, this is a reminder of why I set this log up, the article in question is in my log, on Friday, 18th of February 2005. And surprise surprise, the ACLU was involved in removing religion from the public sphere here also! this article is a must read, I find myself wanting to quote nearly all of it.
