The 10 Commandments are not part of a particular religion.

It's part of several.

Your point is invalid...it's also irrelevant. Prohibition of a particular religion on public lands is just as much a crime as prohibition of any or all of them. Moreover, any law supporting such a prohibition is a law with respect to the establishment of religion.

As for Moore, I don't care what he thinks, I'm more concerned with the persecution Christianity is suffering at the hands of anti-religious bigots throughout America.

Religious advocacy is prohibited by a government official in his official capacity. That's what Moore is doing.

How is not having the Ten Commandments on display in the foyer of the Alabama Supreme Court persecuting Christianity?

Please detail exactly how Christians, on a mass scale, have been prevented from praying, going to church, attempting to convert others, sending bibles to those they think might need them, advertising their services, helping the needy, etc...

Please note that examples involving the use of gov't funds, property or time-on-the-clock are not applicable.

In the meantime, I'll call a whaaaaaambulance for you.
