No more Jesus

Yesterday a Federal Judge weighed in on state matters: Jesus is no longer welcome in the statehouse. The Indianapolis Star reported that the Speaker of the House is required to educate anyone that would pray before the start of the congressional session (which is mandated in the state constitution) that they may not refer or say Jesus, Christ, any of His titles, or allude to any particular denomination.

I really don't know what to say.

I listened to WIBC (Indianapolis radio) and Mr. Bosma (Speaker of the House) was interviewed. He was politically appalled (translate - he was livid, but maintained political composure). He said that he (a Republican) and many Democrats are exploring how to get this overturned.

Dave Wilson, from WIBC, had an interesting thought: If one of the congressmen (to be PC congressperson) had a bill go wrong, would it be wrong for him to swear (take the Lord's name in vain)?

Interestingly enough, he was answered, "That would go against one of the Ten Commandments! But I guess that those are not there, either."
