Pardon me for butting in, but, I don't understand why anyone should be offended by this monument (or anything similar).

Regardless of the reasons that the suit was brougt, no one I have seen hereis arguing that it should be removed because it is "offensive". Everyone is arguing that Judge Moore's ideology and emphatic denial that any other monument will be displayed renders it an establishment of religion. Courts have agreed. And no one seems to be willing to address teh actual quotes of Moore about no other religion being legitimate in his eyes. That ideology makes this a problem.

See the Joseph Story quote on here earlier, which is almost the same as Moore's.

No, Story is not right, but it is interesting.
