I'll refresh your memory. The question was; Which of the commandments would you have government enforce?

To late!

Through the laws of the land written by mere men most are enforced ! A more pointed question would be which law should be ignored making the breaking of basic morality possable?

But also that does not mean that just because a law is written means that the law is moral or just!

Huh? Hard to tell what this means. But the question has to do with the ten commandments being posted in a government courthouse. Why are they there? Are they the law of the government? They don't seem to be. Would you like to make them law and enforced? If so, Which ones? And which would you leave out? And should those then be removed from the government building where laws are enforced?
