So are you saying that the display of the Ten Commandments is practicing faith? I disagree. Is prayer being "outlawed" at the courthouse? Should all non-Christians be forced to hold themselves to only the Christian standard, and not that of their own faith, whatever that may be?

The people of the states, by majority rule, have the right to decide for themselves how religion plays out in their state as long as constitutional rights of minority's are obeyed. It's not for one person to overrule the state's majority and decide how religion is to be conducted in a state.
If anyone has a problem with a state's laws concerning religion that person has the freedom to vote with his shoes and find a place more conducive to his religious leanings.
