[QUOTE="TX_Krötenechse, post: 2742759, member: 71470"] Interestingly enough the “the” is actually part of the official name of the university Anyway, not that anyone cares, but they’re not literally trademarking the word “the” - which of course would not be allowed. They’re trademarking its use in their font. Most likely they’re about to start selling merchandise branded with “the” but absent the rest of the name, hence the new trademark. With regards to the conversation on religion, HoosierFrog seems awfully offended by Hawaiian beliefs which is quite ironic. Also, he seems to be missing the point that he (or anyone else) can display a nativity or the commandments or a statue of Baphomet or whatever the hell else he wants as long as its on private property. The state can’t do it because that’s an endorsement of a particular religion, which runs afoul of a certain founding document that guarantees freedom of religion. [/QUOTE]
