I'm a big proponent of the seperation of church and state

that's why I'm happy about this decision ...

In the case of a Brooklyn shopkeeper who was issued a misdemeanor for selling beer between 3AM and noon on a Sunday, a judge found the law unconstitutional . How? The ban is based on religious beliefs, and is therefore a mixture of church and state.

... well that and the fact that I live in Brooklyn.
