"Actually after reading the decision, it did not "sidestep the issue of whether a religious organization can trademark its name or icons." It said 1. the original ruling was troubling because it was determining issues of sucession, and 2. because there is a difference between symbols and icons of a faith rather than a church. In other words one can trademark syumbol of hte Prevyterian church, one can not trade mark the symbol or name Christian or the cross as those are generic to the faith and not the church."
