No. Wanting religious icons taken off of public land, and calling out someone for thinking christianity has anything to do with democracy is not the same as suing the state for not funding a theme park that restricts employees to Ken's sort of christian, or trying to start an anti Darwin day.

I think this should be in the humour section because I laughed my ass off this shit
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you

I tend to forget to celebrate "Ken Ham is an ignorant prick Day" because I have better things to do, and also because you can celebrate that pretty much any day you choose.
"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."

The separation of church and state is not a law, but legal precedent. Whatever the original intent of the phrase was is moot now. As a matter of legal interpretation, Esquilax is right on. While it's not mentioned in the Constitution, neither is god. And the Declaration of Independence isn't a legal document.

The Supreme Court does feature carvings of Moses and the Ten Commandments. It also features carvings of Confucius, Solon, Hammurabi, Augustus, Charlemagne, Napolean, and many others.

Oath swearing is done to the beliefs of the person swearing in.

Monuments are a reflection of history. That they mention god or bible verses only reflects the beliefs of those people.

In God We Trust only became the national motto in 1956 as a direct result of the Red Scare. It was literally just a way to differentiate ourselves from those atheistic commies. While the phrase slowly propagated on coin currency from the 1880s or so on, the national motto was originally the secular E Pluribus Unum. Which is still used on our national seal.

The national anthem does not mention god. The poem does, in the 4th stanza (I believe), but the actual song based on the 1st stanza makes no mention of it.

The rest is just a mishmash of tradition and controversy avoidance, because everyone knows the nations' panties would get in a twist if a president didn't mention god during their inauguration.
