GB,

The first Commandment says: "I am the Lord thy God. Thou shalt not have strange gods before me."

A statement like this has no business on public property in a nation that professes to protect religious freedom. Judge Moore claims the Commandments are the foundation of our federal law. In effect, he is saying that I, an American citizen, must pray to a god of his choice and not my own.

In this nation, we are all equal in the eye of the law, no matter how "strange" the God we choose before Judge Moore's god.

The third Commandment says: "Remember thou keep the Sabbath Day."

In otherwords, I am not supposed to have a constitutional choice to choose to work on saturday or sunday. To be blunt, no arrogant, self-important judge has the right to tell I can't work on either of those days if I choose. Judge Moore's interpretation of the law is that I should have no such choice.

There is nothing "bonehead" about protecting one of our most treasured Constitutional rights...the First Amendment...which prohibits the State from establishing a religion. The outcome of this case was a constitutional slamdunk from the very beginning...that's why our Supreme Court turned Judge Moore's appeal summarily aside. That's why all of the other judges on the Alabama Supreme ordered the removal of the monument.

If Judge Moore wants to preach he should turn his bench and robe in for a pulpit and frock.

Your confusion over this suggests you have no idea what our Constitutions tells us. Perhaps this is why you have so many other bonehead ideas.
