Athens, Ohio: Church-state pre-trial set for today

2. I sometimes entertain myself in the comments sections of these articles.

One line in a comment almost had me laughing at the ignorance that was displayed in the decision discussed (not to say the decision is inaccurately portrayed):

Should the propriety of the sign every be argued in court, it would probably be done so in similar manner as nativity scenes, being allowed as long as no specific religion is given preference.

How any court or any person can think for a minute that a nativity scene is not giving preference to a specific religion is beyond me. Please raise your hand if you know of any other religion besides Christianity that has a nativity scene.

As to Mr. Kalman, I would wish him luck, although it sounds like he will need more than wishes of luck. But I have the feeling that he will not give up this fight, and I am with him on that.
