VMI Mealtime Prayers?
27 April 2004 by Bob I found this to be rather surprising: Supreme Court Won’t Hear Case of Banned Prayers at Military School
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court said Monday it will not consider reinstating mealtime prayers at a state-funded military college, turning aside an appeal from Virginia officials who wanted to preserve the tradition.Justice Antonin Scalia blasted his colleagues for refusing to hear the case, arguing that it raised important church-state and other questions. Leaving those issues unresolved is unfair to Virginia Military Institute, Scalia wrote in a dissent joined by fellow conservative Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist.
Shit, I guess I’m liking this Court more and more (Scalia aside), especially when you juxtapose this action with what happened in Locke v. Davey. So, where do I send the apple pie?
