He explicitly said no other religious type monuments could be placed there, as his was "from God" and the others weren't.

And that is his opinion. But it does not establish a state religion because it is there. If you put a Montana state flag in an Indiana courtroom, it doesn't change the state. The monument did not establish a religion. It's merely a common philosophy. Some may revere it. Some may not. It's only a problem if people are forced to worship it.

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.
