Just please explain to me how the 10 commandments are government promoting religion.

Becaue five of the ten commandments are purely religious in nature, such as "thou shall have no other gods before me" and "thou shall not use the lord's name in vain." And what's the one about the idols and graven images?

Jesus freakin Christ. I use that phrase a lot in between the God Dammersteins and other colorful phrases. I also have lots of trophys and artifacts in my house that some people might consider idols or graven images. And some day, I might go hindu and worship another God. Who in Jesus' name is Judge Mooron to thrust his relgious beliefs on me everytime I walk into the Alabama Supreme Court.

is there an armed officer there to force you to read or even glance at the monument when you enter??? I think not..you can go worship a tree stump if you want to..that's the great thing about this country. You are free to be a God Hating, homosexual moron and can't be penalized for it.........BUT try to live like the Bible tells you to and instantly, you become a right wing religious zealot that should be trampled. I go into a lot of federal and state buildings that have some really very ugly paintings hanging on the wall....do i have the right to sure to have them taken down??

Beyond the fact that Judge Moore is not "Congress", you have not explained by your manufactured offense how exactly it is that Judge Moore is compelling you in any way to believe or disbelieve in anyone or anything that you wish. The mere display of text does not constitute "establishment". You are free to ignore or disregard the monument entirely for any reason.

I think your issue is a more personal one. You need to deal with your hatred of God before issuing a reasonable opinion on the law.

"Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." John Adams
