I oppose theocracy myself, am hoping for the people of Iran to throw off its bonds. But this order to remove the monument is itself tyrannical. It is extreme slippery slope averse anti-theocracy in the name of civil rights advocacy. I am an atheist who would gladly join the protest in Alabama.

You seem to be one of the few on either side of this issue that understands that this issue is not about religion but about the Constitution.

Believe me, those who zealously seek to remove the display are all too well aware of it. They want, and need, to make this about religion as they don't have a Constitutional leg to stand on in opposing it.

I adamantly decry the ACLU position which is part and parcel of a tragic and deliberate misreading of the Constitution.

I agree with Alan Keyes, and do not criticize the level of understanding on the "other side of this issue" as you put it. That is not to say I agree 100% with every Christian conservative position. For example, I have heard someone on this forum opine that our law by definition comes from G*d's law and I do not agree with that.
