Oh, I see, OK.

Somehow you aren't getting it about the establishment clause. Certain kinds of religious speech, under certain circumstances, violate the establishment clause. These are rights that are *in conflict* in some cases. As I said earlier, a solution that leans toward fulfilling the right to free speech leans away from fulfilling the right to freedom of religion, and vice-versa. There is no solution that fulfills both completely in these cases. One or the other is going to be violated no matter what.
