If it were true, you would have sourced it when I called you on it.

Meanwhile, in America, when asked on CNN whether principles of religious equality would lead him to support an Islamic monument similar to the two-ton commandments, Moore replied, "This nation was founded upon the laws of God, not upon the Koran." In the Christian press, Moore went even further: "This country wasn't founded upon Allah; it was founded upon the Holy Bible, and the question is whether we [Christians] are going to take a stand."

Asked on CNN whether he would support an Islamic monument to the Koran in the rotunda of the federal building, Moore replied, "This nation was founded upon the laws of God, not upon the Koran. That's clear in the Declaration [of Independence], so it wouldn't fit history and it wouldn't fit law."

I'm sure your apology will be immediately forthcoming.

Here's what YOU said: no other religious statements may be made there, only his.

What you posted says nothing about your statement. You said he would not allow ANY statement. Your source says he would not SUPPORT another monument. Two completely different things.
