Guess all the Justice Roy Moore bashers are full of sh*t after all!

No, Mr. Moorer insisted he was placing it because it was the religious basis of our country and that was what was prohibited.
The Federal Circuit Court was clear on that.

If he had placed it, as the Texas copy was placed, as "a foundational document in the development of Western legal codes and culture" it could have stayed.

It was not the Ten Commandments that were prohibited, but the Ten Commandments placed for religious reasons.

A worthless argument if ever there was one. The Ten Commnadments is both inherently religious and at the same time historical. The two can not be separated. Read the decision, your claim that religion must be total separated from the church is at odds with the 5th Circuits opinion.

On to the Kings and Queens of America for the royal decision!

I don't understand this. Judge Moore has insisted the 10 commandments are the underpinning of our law in the U.S., they are religious period.

It is perposterous that a precept can not be religious and at the same time be used judiciously as a basis for law. Just because the man points out that they are religious and are a basis for our law he gets banned by a bunch of skewed thinking irreligious zealots...
