Oklahoma's Supreme Court says the Ten Commandments monument at the state Capitol must be removed because it indirectly benefits the Jewish and Christian faiths in violation of the state's constitution.
The court ruled Tuesday that the Oklahoma Constitution bans using public property to benefit a religion, and said the Ten Commandments are "obviously religious in nature."
Attorney General Scott Pruitt argued that the monument is nearly identical to a Texas monument that was found constitutional by the U.S. Supreme Court. Oklahoma justices said the local monument violates Oklahoma's constitution.
Private funds were used to erect the monument in 2012. Since then, others have asked for space, including a Nevada Hindu leader, animal rights advocates, the satirical Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster and a group pushing for a Satan statue.

Now it's a War on Christians.
Via Drudge.
Our lesser magistrates must now stand up for us and defend us. They must say no to these rulings.
Need to change the Oklahoma constitution so that it is similar to Texas.
So, which commandment in particular do they find offensive?
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them
Guess we'll just have to start over.
Is that satanic one still allowed up?
Sure looks like we are due for a major refurbishing.
It is time to hit the reset button on the US and just start over. These judges needs to seek another line of work in the new socialist states of america on the other side of the red/blue line.
I didn’t think the Satan statue ever went up, even though there was a good deal of talk about it. But I could be wrong.
I wonder how many will show up, armed and ready to defend the Bible, when they come to knock it down?
"Lord, make my hand fast and accurate. Let my aim be true and my hand faster than those who would seek to destroy me. Grant me victory over my foes and those who wish to do harm to me and mine. Let not my last thought be 'If I only had my gun." And Lord, if today is truly the day you call me home Let me die in a pile of empty brass."
Amen
Another communists club, Oklahoma’s Supreme Court
Jungle Law??
Perhaps Islamic State or the Al Queda wing of Obama's Muslim Brotherhood allies will assist the Justices with the removal project.
OK should tell them to stuff their edict up their own flaccid recta.
I think we are pretty close of having the divorce papers drawn up. Those who believe in the Judeo-Christian tradition and the liberties of the Constitution can have their country, and the socialists and the neo-pagans, the sodomites and the worshipers of Baal can have theirs. We'll see which one prospers real quick.
Rush made a suggestion that a line be drawn through the country, and all the Democrats be put on one side, and all the Republicans be put on the other. He further made the point that within a year, the Democrats would be fleeing the Democrat side trying to gain access to the Republican side, and the first people to flee the Democrat side will be the very wealthy Democrats.
There would have to be a VERY well defended boundary between the two sides. The Democrats would be trying to keep the people IN, and the Republicans would be forced to keep the others OUT, or send them back immediately.
Think the Berlin Wall.
Surround WashingToon/Baltimorons and don’t let them leave or any one in!!!
Hell it’s just a start...
Then amend that constitution.I should be that difficult.
