SInce I don't have access to a "Wayback Machine"...
(from Sherman and Peabody of Bullwinkle fame) to explore alternate timelines, I honestly don't know.
The fact is the ACLU has been very active for years at opposing even the slightest hint of government mixing with religion. They're strangely silent this time and I find that puzzling or hypocritical. For example, on at least one occasion the ACLU has gone to court to get a county to remove a plaque of the 10 Commandments, but don't seem to mind that a state university requires study of the Koran?
