The problem is his using his government position and facilities to make religious statements;

1) the laws of God as stated in the Ten Commandments are superior to any other law;

2) what (the words) he has chiseled on his monument comes from God;

3) he derives his secular judicial powers from God;

4) no other religious statements may be made there, only his.

"The problem is his using his government position and facilities to make religious statements."

So the monuments to religious law-givers in the SCOTUS building are doing the same? How about all those statues to Greek and Roman gods in governmental buildings?

So? Are you saying his speech should be limited by its content.

Nice try but you made that one up. I imagine people made them all the time. Just because you can put the Constitution in a courtoom doesn't mean the Communist Manifesto has to be there.
