Really.
Okay, maybe just Marbury, then.
Read Justice Scalia's dissent in McCreary County v. A.C.L.U., starting at screen page 39. It's too long to excerpt here, while i'm supposed to be working, but it is beautiful and worth the effort to read.

How can average Americans be able to even discuss the Establishment Clause when the top judges in the land are as confused as drunkards riding the Tilt a Whirl?

i guess he didn't want to accentuate the protestant aspect of religion in pointing out that the first congress consisted of 24 ordained or in-training ministers.
