Religious people shouldn't want their faith to be elevator music.
...exactly.

I stumbled onto an article by William Stuntz, a professor at Harvard Law School, that expresses my sentiments about Love for God and country.

Take the people who want symbols of their faith on government property, and put them in a society where passionate atheism is the majority view. Suppose all those passionate atheists want to put up monuments in every courthouse and state capitol saying that there is no God, that all good law consists of human wisdom and nothing more. Would my fellow believers like that state of affairs?

I'm not championing the website but you might enjoy reading the article.
