[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1715857, member: 12508"] Here's the essence of why it's wrong. I'll go slow, so you can follow. In a nation that allows freedom of/from religion why does [B]one [/B]religion get preferential treatment? The Ten Commandments are a Christian deal, and therefore, do NOT belong on any government property. I'm sure you'd be OK with recitations from the Koran plastered all over government facilities, right? There should be ZERO associations with religion(s) at government offices etc. None. We are not a Christian monotheistic nation, but a polytheistic country where you can believe in anything you want. The intent of the founders was clear. Freedom of religion also equals freedom from religion, and church and state need to be separate entities, for obvious reasons, which, of course, are incomprehensible for you. I'm waiting for the day when someone demands that their religious symbols be placed on government property. While I'm at it, "In God We Trust" needs to be removed from our currency. [/QUOTE]
