16. And nativity scenes on the courthouse lawn, they got no problem with.

In the county I live in, they keep a nativity scene on the courthouse lawn at Christmas, because "it's tradition".

In other words, they don't care about separation of church and state, and think they are right.

That's when I get out my "Axial Tilt is the Reason for the Season" poster and put it on my fence.

But they don't understand axial tilt, even with my beautiful painting of the earth and the sun.
