I cannot understand Larry Bickford's flame against Andy T's posting
regarding the organization "People for the American Way."

Instead of hearing specious arguments against the religion of "Secular
Humanism" designed to prop up a failing campaign to establish
fundamentalistchristianity (it's not what I call Christianity) as the
state religion, I'd like to hear specific arguments addressing some of the
points brought up by Steve Bellovin and others regarding protection of
individual beliefs and morality in the face of institutionalized school
prayer.

Bickford and the others of his ilk would prefer to throw away individual
protections and pluralism for a homogeneous christian state.  Is it any
wonder that Andy, myself, and many others take issue with this?
