You can walk up to this stone monument and read the actual Ten Commandments.

Doggonit, did they take the TC out of the Bible AGAIN?

Not all folks are libertarian geniuses and some like a kindly and beautiful reminder of a cornerstone of Christianity, of Judaism, of Western law and Western civilization.

A few of us can see reminders of God's greatness just by looking out the window, at a sunset, or at a newborn baby. With some, I guess they need a hunk of rock even if the law says it is not proper to do so.

Prideful fools mock such reminders

Holier-than-thou, intolerant so-called "Christians" conveniently forget the parts of the Bible that state "Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's ..." in order to attack others.

I just have to wonder: How would those who believe that "The Ten Commandments Are Being Destroyed" in this thread feel if tax dollars were used to pay to put a Torah on the door of each courthouse and public building in the US?

Knock yourself out. Few Freepers would disagree.

Correct. Except that it's 100% lawful. Here you have a bunch of smart Alec, runt of the litter lawyers trying to banish God's word from the public square.

Maybe the Muslims will help Roy Moore.

Strela crawled forth and spewed:

"Holier-than-thou, intolerant so-called "Christians" conveniently forget the parts of the Bible that state "Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's ..." in order to attack others."

Hint, we the people are Ceasar!
