If you're anything like me, I'd have to be sedated in order to listen to their side without embarrassing myself.

Sodom and Gomorrah disobeyed God Laws.
Gee, I can't find them on the world map anymore, and I wonder why

"The government is not supposed to be for religion or against religion," Douglas Laycock, a professor and associate dean at the University of Texas School of Law, said

wrong.

Not being able to be for or against something is nothing but nebulous insanity.

No, not the white, shirt, yes, the white shirt. On the other hand, no, not the white shirt. Well, I'm just going to wear it, but I can't...

Utter insanity. If they strike down the monuments, then they have adopted ACTIONS (not matter WHAT words they use) that PROHIBIT THE ****FREE**** EXERCISE OF RELIGION...

Oooops, that little used phrase in circular legal reasoning because the FREE exercise of religion would mean the monuments have to stand...

How the Courts can declare mere display of the Ten Commandments to be any violation of the Establishment clause defies logic and Law. For in 1853-1854 the Judiciary committee Reports of both the Senate Jan.19,1853)
and the House (March 27,1854) discussed the Establishment Clause.And their findings are easy to reconcile to that
which was written by Justic eJoseph Story in his Commentaries on the Constitution in 1833,And all of this
easy to reconcile to the clear language used and expressed intent in the First Federal Congress when they debated the
First Amendment. Any display in any Governemnt building or public school is NOT a violation of the Establishemnt Clause.Only someone who HATES America and seeks to destroy our Country could say otherwise.

A flag has been deemed an expression of free speech and protected as such.

I wonder, if a flag with the 10 commandments on it is planted on gov't property, is it protected free speech?

How about a flag with a Nativity scene on it? Hmmmmm

As a part of larger sculptural clusters, Moses is shown with tablets in the Great Hall, The East Pediment, and the North Courtroom of the U.S. Supreme Court, DeMar said. There is also an image of the Ten Commandments that is engraved on the frame of the bronze gates separating the courtroom from the aisle.

Also, above where the chief justice sits, a banner reads, "Justice, the Guardian of Liberty." Centered above the banner is a depiction of Moses seated and holding the Ten Commandments, DeMar added.

This is an except from an article on CNSNews, Moses, Ten Commandments Already Featured at US Supreme Court
