Uh, Walsh, I believe it WAS litigated.

Well that's your problem in a nutshell Spur, you don't know what you believe and you don't know what was litigated.

SInkspur stated that he thinks the Ten Commandments displayed in courtrooms are constitutional. Paraphrased so correct my if I got anything wrong there.

Then you say that thew Chief Justice erred by refusing other displays.

The remedy for that situation is to remove the Chief Justice, not the Ten Commandments.

You following me here Spur?

Actually, the remedy is to remove the 10 Commandments, then remove the Chief Justice, then his replacement can put the rock back, surrounded by other expressions of legal history that might also have a religious connotation.

I've got no problem with the 10 Commandments displayed as part of a historical mosaic.

Moore is using them as a religious display, and has said as much.
