Without the first four, there’s no reason to keep the other six.

Yep! I’m sure G-d would be in favor of this compromise, after all he is known for compromising on HIS laws ...

Judicial decrees are becoming sillier by the day.

Why not just teach the last 15 letters of the alphabet?

10 Commandments - The Greatest Hits Edition? Or a 'Split' Decision...

The 10 commandments are historical. To remove 4 of the comandments would be to take them out of historical context.

That's the secular argument for leaving them in and whole, in my humble opinion.

“The ten commandments are God's laws. Man has no right to change them” Right. This is not a matter for any earthly judge, especially a federal one, to be involved in. I bet God is having a conniption in heaven right now

“Christian” churches all over the country pick and choose which commandments they want to preach. Sad.

The ACLU would really crap if the school board had posted a translation of the Code of Hammurabi.

It's got some really harsh stuff in it.

Without the Lawgiver, there are no laws.

We are a nation under God, therefore, saying “God” or “Lord” does not establish or endorse any particular religion, but it is all about Absolute Truth—One standard of Right and Wrong. It is God’s (of the Bible) standards and government has no power to censor religious speech-—particularly the Founding Principles embedded into our Judicial system. They need to uphold the belief in God—for that is where our Natural Rights come from as stated in our Founding Documents.

Atheist should not be allowed to become judges or sit on juries or be in the legislature or be President...they didn’t used to allow it when we were a Constitutional Republic. The ideology of Atheists/Communists/Satanists are incompatible with our Judicial system of Objective Truth. You are basically required to take an oath to God since He is the most important part of the Constitution, which demands a belief in God. Without God—there can be no Natural Rights from the Creator.

Geez, we've already cut them down from 15.

I would like the judge to explain which religion are the Commandments a part of? Seems to me, there are a few.

If they use the Catholic and Lutheran counting of the commandments (which is said to go back to St. Augustine) they keep 7 and skip the first 3.

How totally absurd is this???? cutting out some of the Commandments would take out the RELIGIOUS OVERTONES of the 10 Commandments?????? I think I’ve heard it all now!

So we're going to censor the Commandments? Forget about a commandment prohibiting that, isn't there an Amendment that talks about this?

Of what value would displaying the "6 Federally Approved Commandments" be?
