"No law or ruling denies one single person in Alabama to practice their religion. If so, I would fully support the Judge and the protesters. But that ain't happening. This is all about pride."

It runs much deeper than that. Many people apparently think a government is illegitimate if it does not explicitly endorse some weakest-common-denominator Christianity.

I think that is extremely dangerous.

And it's ironic too ... since GW Bush, beloved leader of Christian conservatives, is trying to sell the idea of a non-sectarian democracy abroad.

GW Bush, for all the cries about him being a fundamentalist (or whatever), is very rational about all this. His own nominee to the federal courts, William Pryor, has come out against this silliness as well. I am an evangelical Christian and 100% against this. It promotes our faith in no way whatsoever. It's all about some pride-filled people doing something to feel better about themselves.

Since the 10 Commandments are accepted by every variety of Christian as well as Jews, how is this a sectarian thing? Even if Moore is a believer in some specific brand, the 10 Commandments monument is not a member of any particular church.
