Our Founding Fathers certainly believed that the Judeo-Christian God
belonged in the schools -- contra Pogue Gans and other lesser breeds
without the law -- or the prophets.

For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one
tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.  <g>

"Let the pulpit resound with the doctrine and sentiments of
religious liberty.  Let us hear of the dignity of man's nature,
and the noble rank he holds among the works of God... Let it
be known that British liberties are not the grants of princes
and parliaments."

-- John Adams (Dissertation on the Canon and Feudal Law, 1765)
