I'm a conservative, believe strongly in the Constitution, have extensive post-graduate study of it, and I think Judge Moore is wrong.

Reasonable people can differ, and I believe I understand all the arguments that have been made.

When an Islamic judge in America puts up a monument to the Koran in your courthouse, I want you to defend that, too.

The Quran doesn't have a lot to do with western thought in general and American history in particular. It would be much more appropriate in say Riyadh.

That's what this ultimately boils down to. Supposing that Judge Moore prevails in a case before the Supreme court - then the door is opened to any kind of expression that a judge wants to put in a courthouse. Insert any objectionable but fully recognizable religion here.

People think this is about icons of Christianity under assault, but it is not. I despise Judge Moore for this - and I believe he's doing it just for the attention and the money for the "ministry"
