12. This is where we lose middle America
Look I am against the cross over of church and state in matters of judicial judgement, legislation etc... but when the die hard anti religious decide that they are going after ridiculous crap like this and removing the 10 commandments from historical sites then we shoot ourselves in the foot.

On an intellectual level I agree and would love to see the TOTAL removal of church from state, but we have to show the awareness (whether we like it or not) that the VAST majority of America believes in a higher diety that more often than not is Christian in orientation. If we continue to pursue actions that show us as anti-religious, we will continue to not get their support, which we need.
