Archaeologists Discover Ancient Church
JERUSALEM – Israeli archaeologists said Saturday they have discovered what may be the oldest Christian church in the Holy Land on the grounds of a prison near the biblical site of Armageddon.
The Israeli Antiquities Authority said the ruins are believed to date back to the third or fourth centuries and include references to Jesus and images of fish, an ancient Christian symbol.
“This is a very ancient structure, maybe the oldest in our area,” said Yotam Tepper, the head archaeologist on the dig.
A book Eric will never read
Given the title, I’m forced to wonder if Maureen Dowd is really necessary…
Just what is “separation of church and state?”
Does it mean you can’t force a public official to be a certain religion?
Does it mean you can’t show preferential treatment to people or organizations that have a certain relisious affiliation?
Does it mean “God” can’t be mentioned at anything that has anything to do with public schools, city hall or the governor’s mansion?
Or does it mean a high school marching band can’t cover the Charlie Daniels band classic “The Devil Went Down to Georgia?”
Yes: We are getting very stupid about “separation of church and state.” At least this time it involves the devil, and not recasting bronze that happened to have some mention of “divine justice” or “eternal truth” or just plain old, “God.”
