(FORTUNE Magazine) – The American Civil Liberties Union ((is)) suggesting ((that)) a legislative prayer caucus ((in the Georgia House of Representatives)) may be violating the constitutional separation of church and state. Citing . . . Abraham Lincoln . . . founders of the prayer caucus, Representative Eugene Tillman (D Brunswick) and Representative Ron Crews (R Tucker), took to the well to rail against the . . . ACLU . . . Teresa Nelson, executive director of the Georgia ACLU, said the organization wrote to Crews and Tillman to question their use of state stationery to invite the Legislature and other state officials to the prayer caucus's weekly Friday morning meeting . . . Nelson said the ACLU was not questioning the group's right to . . . pray but the use of ((the)) state letterhead to promote the meetings, which she argues is using taxpayer funds for religious activity. -- From a news report in the Atlanta Journal and Constitution.
