Where in our Constitution is Judge Moore prohibited from paying with his own money to put a statue in front of any building?

The Fourteenth Amendment prohibits the taking of property by the government or its agents without due process.

If the purpose of the statue is to promote religion, then it is prohibited by the First Amendment.

The complete text of the Constitution can be found here:
The Constitution of the United States of America

They were explicit and forceful in their repeated insistence on the valid and intrinsic role of Christianity in America's viability as a free constitutional republic.

Where in our Constitution does it say that?

What property was taken? Where was it taken to? Are you just vomiting up more red-herrings because you have no legal or logical grounds for your anti-Christian spew?

It's funny watching you grope at straws as your own pretzel logic betrays you.

How about all those Founding Father's quotes on their having founded America as a Christian Nation? Even the U.S. Supreme Court stating that America is a Christian Nation.

Must really rot your garter. ;-/
