Why would people call it "tyranny by the minority" when the state is forbidden from funding religious activity in any way?
The Supreme Court Judges are all learned people. The Supreme Court Judges all believe in God.
Confronted with a problem, they came to a resolution, and in the manner prescribed. Seems to me that they did do their job, to the best of their ability.

I think that you folks are extremely lucky in the way their ruling(s) on this issue have been implemented. My personal strategy would have been to make a full wide sweep and change everything that was affected upon FIRST ruling. But it works in the opposite way, so each and every instance gets judged on its own merits. That's gross inefficiency, to say the least! And it's no doubt this way precisely so that those lawyers you admire so much < s > can make their big bucks. [I guess that no lawyers attend your Church]

What would be your solution to these problems, keeping in mind the WHOLE RANGE OF CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS and that they apply EQUALLY TO ALL?

I may be a negative ninnie as regards some VFP/MS things, but it is clear that you are a member of the club when it comes to the Supreme Court and religion.
