Living With Your Own Mess
The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, they of the Pledge of Allegiance is unconstitutional fame, has, according to FOXNews, been sued for religious representations. The irony is wonderful, but the facts are amazing:
The case was brought by an attorney who was admitted to practice before the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in June. In his lawsuit against the San Francisco-based court, Ryan Donlon (search) said the certificate admitting him contains the court's seal which unlawfully contains what he believes is a tablet object representing the Ten Commandments.
Cathy Catterson, the court's clerk, said the seal highlights a woman, known as "the Majesty of the Law" who is reading a large book. At her feet is a tablet with 10 unreadable lines on it — what Donlon believes is the Ten Commandments.
Donlon -- Get A Life!
