This is a blatant attempt to remove God from all that is public.

Then how do you explain the 10 Commandments' presence at the US Supreme Court, and in the Texas Supreme Court building, all without a peep from any court, anywhere?

See, to me, this isn't about the 10 Commandments; it's about Roy Moore and the next step on his career ladder.

The ACLU and thier pals recognise that they have to walk before they fly. Federal District Courts are ever widening Justice Blacks' Wall of Separation. Some frogs notice and some don't.

Those things you mentioned are obviously next on the ACLU list of targets.

Get out the sand blasters.

Moore is just taking a stand. It is not all about him. IMO.

Look at the cases taking god out of the pledge and other previously un-tampered with references.

The path they are taking is now very clear to me. BTW, I am not a religious man, but I can see it now as others have long ago. And I do agree with them on the thinking that the nation was founded on religious and moral principles.

that is why Stalin and all other tyrants saw it as a barrier to total authoritarian rule. There must be a balance. Acknowledgment of god is a basic premise that most all religions share. Even Buddhist's and others have a Deity/deities and the word God can be substituted.

Atheism is a ism as well. I cannot let them hammer the foundations of our country like this. They are not being discriminated against and are not even claiming it. They want to do something that only makes sense to someone who would want to take advantage of a Godless society.

I have no problem should you choose to denigrate Judge Moore with this clear statement.

You might be right.

Don't, however, advocate anti-religious actions based upon the flaws of a zealot.
