Monument to Baphomet unveiled for Oklahoma statehouse

RE: Monument to Baphomet unveiled for Oklahoma statehouse
Quote:"Constitutional law is quite clear on this issue: The state can’t discriminate against viewpoints. If they’ve opened the door for one, they’ve opened it for all.”
I'm guessing that a lot of Oklahomans will ditch constitutional law for mob rule the moment it becomes convenient for them to do so. Which would, not coincidentally, be the moment someone petitions to display a non-Christian statue or sign.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
