What was your opinion of Michael Newdow and Madalyn Murray O'Hair?
Newdow was the guy who tried to get "under god" removed from the Pledge of Allegiance. I think that it is a good idea, seeing as, from all accounts, it is a relic of the second Red Scare that is probably out of sync with the values of today. While we're at it, I think it is best to remove "In God We Trust" from our money. Apart from being an government endorsement of religion of dubious constitutionality, it, at least according to Teddy Roosevelt, might even be sacreligious.
O'Hair on the other hand, tends to rub me the wrong way. I mean, I can understand suing for the removal of teacher-led prayer and bible study in schools, but filing a lawsuit against NASA because three astronauts were moved by the view from the moon to quote from the Bible?
