So you said.
Is there anything else about this that bothers you? Do you believe the first amendment says that there should be a seperation of government and religion? Or do you believe the first amendment only prevents the federal government from making laws concerning religion?
How do you feel about public prayer?
What is your position on kids wearing religious symbols to public schools?

My thoughts on this do not involve my personal religious beliefs. Mainly, I see this as Robinson wrongly using religion to gain publicity.
Look at the facts. He is merely copying someone else that gained a tremendous amount of national publicity for placing the Ten Commandments in a public forum in Alabama. Robinson is playing off of this using the Ten Commandments as a way to gain more publicity for his campaign.
TaxRelief, let me ask you this. Do you honestly believe that Vernon Robinson would have paid $2,000 to have this monument placed on City Hall grounds if he were not running for Congress? The extremely obvious nature of it all is what makes it seem so forced and contrived. That's my opinion.
