Most ACLU members are secularists and atheists.

This is simply untrue. Just because an organization agrees with the Constitution regarding separation of church and state does not mean they are populated primarily by anti-Christian secularists and atheists. People forget that ACLU stands for American Civil Liberties Union; they defend civil liberties regardless of a person's race, creed or religion. This means they sometimes defend those others would prefer to hang, banish, or skewer. They will defend your civil liberties, too. They might even defend someone's right to post anti-semitic Christian propoganda. The way things are going with the war on terror we may all someday thank the ACLU for their tenacity.
