Although I disagree with not letting other religious symbols to be displayed, I have to argue whether it's a violation of the separation of church and state considering there is no such thing. The separation of church and state clause (and I'm assuming your refering to the 1st amendment) actually states....Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof... Which only means that Congress cannot pass a LAW in regards to religion or the discrimination of any religion. As you can see it doesn't say anything what so ever about separating the two. Everyone should have equal right to display their religious symbols. And for those that say there shouldn't be any religious symbols because it might offend someone are now infringing on my rights.
