MAIL CALL
Church, state must
remain separated
It would appear that many stu
dents writing to Mail Call recently
felt that out nation’s laws should
be based on The Bible.
This opinion is both dangerous
and outrageous. As the 1797
Treaty with Tripoli states, “The gov
ernment of the United States of
America is not in any sense found
ed on the Christian religion.”
If our laws happen to corre
spond to parts of The Bible, that
is fine.
However, laws should never be
made or broken in order to comply
with any religious doctrine. One
must keep in mind that all reli
gions are entirely rooted in "faith.”
No one on this planet can truly
know who is correct. Therefore,
we must make our laws based on
what works best for our country,
not on what certain groups of peo
ple consider "morally correct.”

Yell leaders useless
for Aggie basketball
I am writing in disgust of what I
have witnessed at A&M men’s bas
ketball games this year. I respect
A&M’s traditions just as much as
everyone. However, the yell leaders
do not belong at our basketball
games. Time and time again, I’ve
seen a rowdy crowd at Reed Arena
silenced by "Hump It Ags.”
Every team that comes to
Reed knows that a simple timeout
will kill any momentum we have
gained. During these timeouts,
the student section is silenced in
order to perform the yells. What
the A&M basketball teams needs
is some fast-paced music thrown
in these timeouts to keep the
crowd in the game. I will say that I
enjoy the dance team. They add
excitement to the game and keep
the team’s momentum up. If we
want to have a basketball team
for the new millennium, we need
to foster the proper basketball en
vironment that other top basket
ball schools do.
