stentorian [stɛnˈtɔːrɪən]
adj
(of the voice, etc.) uncommonly loud

1773 The Boston Tea Party took place in 1773.
Separation of Church and State I was misinformed. I always assumed that the U.S. Constitution contained a "separation of Church and State" clause. In fact, it didn't. It contained a clause about not establishing a state church. The words "Separation of Church and State" came from a 1947 Supreme Court decision written by a rabid anti-Catholic judge appointed by FDR. I had been thinking that separation of church and state didn't mean separation of state and religion. But it seems that the separation of church and state was meant to separate state and religion -- a separation I don't agree with. I believe that if someone wants to put religious symbols in the public square, it should be up to the community and its representatives to decide this -- not some overarching bureaucratic entity. And the fact that the mayor may decide to allow a manger scene in the public square does not mean there is a danger of a state church being established.
