LINK Neil Gorsuch's Reference to "So-Called" Church/State Separation is a Bad Omen

Yesterday, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in a case involving Boston’s refusal to fly a Christian flag outside City Hall. The writing on the wall doesn’t look good, and even the ACLU this week said it was on the side of letting the Christian flag fly.

But perhaps the scariest part of the arguments occurred when the mask-refusing Justice Neil Gorsuch snidely dismissed a Boston commissioner’s concern that allowing a religious flag to go up could be unconstitutional.

Said Gorsuch, “[Commissioner of the City of Boston Property Management Department Gregory T.] Rooney said that he thought it was concern about the so-called separation of… church and state, or the Constitution's Establishment Clause.”

Let them put it up, then the satanist can fly their flag.

They should go there and protest.

As much as I would dislike it, the Xians could-well prevail (precedence) : 😛

We are losing and have little chance of turning the train wreak around after being asleep at the wheel for the past 50+ years.
