While I have a HUGE problem with this book and it's viewpoint (it might as well say the Grand Canyon was created by Voodoo, as far as I'm concerned), the question asked is moot as far as I can see.
The oft quoted "Separation of church and state" is stated as a principle, but is not in the constitution. The constitution speaks against the establishment of a state religion, not removing all religion from public life.
Plaques? I would be happier if passages from many religions in addition to the Judeo-Christian one were used as opposed to removing them.
