Make your own thread about abortion. You're derailing this topic , which if you're all about righteous principles, is wrong to do.

I am done here as far as abortion goes. And yes Kentucky is pursuing an illegal action. But with the Supreme Court stacked a bit they may get away with it.

It isn't unconstitutional for a government school to have displayed the nations motto. :)
Utah schools have done so for 17 years.

Just because another state has been breaking the law does not make it legal for other states to do so.

No, they're not breaking the law. I think you know that. "In God We Trust", is on the chamber walls of the nations law makers, Congress. Are they breaking the law?

They at least have the excuse of history on their side, but he's it is still technically illegal. I can see that you do not understand the establishment clause.

You don't see very well nor know very much about this matter.
In God We Trust, appears behind the House speakers podium due to House Resolution 740 in 1962. Passed right after SCOTUS made their ruling concerning prayer in school and as a means of protest by the House.
It is a national motto. Get that? National motto of the nation that is the United States of America.
It has been repeatedly decided by the courts when atheists and others tried to have the motto removed from our currency that the motto does not promote a religion. The currency motto stays.

Public schools are government funded. A national motto on a government property is not promoting a religion.
Claiming a national motto is illegal makes the claimant look silly.

And the reason for putting that motto up is what made it illegal. Once again the establishment clause makes that clear.

Since that God is almost certainly mythical your question does not make much sense.

And it has nothing to do with your earlier claim that God is sloppy.

Perhaps your basic English skills could use a tune up.

Well, looks like we gotta fight them Christians in court again.
Maybe we're going about it all wrong...trying only to get rid
of the religious slogan. Let's replace their motto with...
"Hail Satan", "God is dead", or "Evolution rules!"
