10 Commandments Update

Just to follow up on my rant yesterday about the 10 Commandments stuff, word comes from Winston-Salem that the monument placed on the steps of city hall by a wayward councilman has been removed. Out of this whole mess comes these words of wisdom from a local reverend: "Separation of church and state protects the free expression of religion . . . If religion becomes an arm of the government, people will pray with the same enthusiasm that they pay their taxes."

Amen, brother.
