Federal Judge Orders Removal of Ten Commandments [Earlier this year]
In the latest judicial attack on the Ten Commandments, a federal judge ordered a monument containing the Commandments removed from the lawn of the Gibson County courthouse in Indiana. The monument was placed there by the local Elks lodge in 1956 as a part of a national campaign to check the rising number of delinquent youth. While being carted off to jail for abetting public indecency, a strip club owner said the display caused him "irreparable harm," so he decided to enlist the aid of the ACLU to have the monument removed. Long story short, on January 31 Southern District Judge Richard Young ruled in favor of the strip club owner and said the Commandments had to go. The judge gave the county 60 days to have them removed.
Last week Congressman John Hostettler (R-IN), who represents the area, asked President Bush to exercise his executive prerogative and instruct the U.S. Marshall not to remove the commandments as ordered by the court. The point that Congressman Hostettler (R-IN) is raising is long overdue; it is time someone with the proper authority stood up to the runaway judiciary, which does not have the exclusive authority to enforce its own rulings. The continual stream of judicial decisions from activist judges, beginning in 1947 with Justice Hugo Black when he created the "wall of separation," have steadily eroded the rich spiritual soil of our nation, leaving a cavernous divide in our body politic. Enough is enough! We echo Congressman Hostettler's request - for the sake of the nation.
