This bodes well for the Rowan County Commissioners, it seems to me that the case that they are appealing was just made moot as I predicted that it would should the issue ever become before the Supremes again.
WASHINGTON (AP) -- "Prayers that open town council meetings do not violate the Constitution even if they routinely stress Christianity, a divided Supreme Court ruled Monday. The court said in 5-4 decision that the content of the prayers is not significant as long as they do not denigrate non-Christians or proselytize."
I bet you that the ACLU who brought the lawsuit against the Commissioners, and the atheists' who the ACLU were representing, because of their felling slighted by having to listen a prayer invoking Jesus are having a hissy fit today.
High court ruling favors prayer at council meeting
