To those of u who support posting the 10 Commandments on publci buildings:
Would you support posting any of the following:

"God is a myth" - something that deists Jefferson, Paine, Madison, and Franklin would agree with?
"Christians are evil" - something that I think echoes Paine and Jefferson's toughts?
"Christianity is murder"?
"Allah is great"?
"Joseph Smith was a liar"?
"The Pope is a false prophet"?
"Martin Luther was the spawn of satan"?
"One nation, under Satan"?
"One nation, under Wicca"?
"One nation, under Murray"?
"Your petitioners are atheists, and define their lifestyle as follows:... <the whole quote of Murray's comes here"?
"Jews are misguided"?
"The United States is founded on the principles of secularism, reason, rationality, and individual and independent thought"?

1. The response will say something like
"Those example have nothing to do with the sources of our legal traditions" while ignoring the fact that a display which contains only thr 10 Commandments is not a historical display of our legal traditions.

2. I don't think there are many people on DU
who want to post the Ten Commandments on public buildings.

Plus, this is nothing but flame bait. So I'm locking it.

3. Bismillah ar rahman ar rahim

Can we stick that up next to the big 10 in the courthouse?
