"Now, concerning the meat of the argument, this rock inscribed with words and images is no different than anything other publically funded rock inscribed with words and images" . . .This statement is in direct conflict with Judge Roy's sworn testimony about the Rock.

It is remarkable that so many people will so readily discard the whole idea of intent on this issue. Intent is a fundamental characteristic of our most basic law. Without intent, there would be no distinction between murder and self-defense. Without intent, there would be no distinction between burning a flag to dispose of it and burning a flag to express hatred for the U.S.

Intent matters under the law of the land, and under the law of God. The Tenth Commandment is about nothing but intent.
