John Witherspoon, president of Princeton and signer of the Declaration, and one who served on over one hundred committees while in Congress, declared: ''The Ten Commandments .. are the sum of the moral law.'' I think the keyword would be "moral"
I use to think the reason some hated the Ten Commandments was because they hated God ... I'm now of the thinking it is more because they fear God ... and what might come in the after life when they have to answer for their deeds
Those that want to do away with the Ten Commandments, kind of remind me of a 2 or 3 year old that think that when they covers their eyes, no one can see them and what they are doing

Do they fear God's judgement-- alone at night possibly, when faced with something like cancer or any of the countless reminders of how we are powerless, of how depite being like God we are definitively not God, almost certainly.
The real fear of God is not their own but yours. They fear your belief in God and how it will interfere with you believing in the supremacy of the State-- a State they control. If nothing is God's then all is rendered onto Caesar.
