Should publicly displaying the "Ten Commandments" be made legal???
From the American Family Association's website:
As you know, the Supreme Court is currently studying the Ten Commandments issue. The Supreme Court is not immune to the will of the people. While we cannot directly influence the outcome of the decision by the Supreme Court, we can express our desires as citizens of the United States.
I urge you to join with other Americans in expressing a desire that the Ten Commandments can be legally displayed in all public places. It is important that we have a moral basis for our laws. The Ten Commandments are in essence the foundation for our laws. Should the foundation be destroyed, the building will fall.
Please join me in supporting the display of the Ten Commandments in all public places, including schools and courtrooms.
From time to time the number of Americans who have expressed a desire to see the Ten Commandments legally displayed in public places will be released and forwarded to the Supreme Court. It will take millions of Americans participating for us to be successful.
I happen to agree with this legislation. I reject the notion that this Country's Founding Fathers created our government on the idea of freedom *FROM* religion... nearly every single one of them were religious and subscribed to a common code of ethics... what they in fact created was a government based on the idea of freedom *OF* religion... and there is a very big difference between the two! Let all major religions' code of ethics be displayed, that's what I say! But the day we decide to *illegalize* the display of such codes is a very dark day for America... and by and large we are already most of the way down that path! if there is any question to the intention of our Founding Fathers, it is because the truth is being misrepresented in our history classes and books. Take a moment to read the Declaration of Indepence and the U.S. Constitution and you will the overlaid theme of a Divine Providence.
If you agree with me, go to the AFA's website and sign their petition today! If we can get enough of our voices in front of the Supreme Court, maybe they will decide to the right thing and stop all of this nonsense by those crazy North-Californian courts!!!

(Mom) I so appreciate your writing this on this blog, for all to read and I really enjoyed reading it too. I thought your littlest sister would have something to comment here ---but maybe she hasn't seen it yet. Currently reading from one of the GREATES Patriots ever - he says: "We are far removed from the days of our forefathers who were persecuted for their peculair beliefs. Some of us seem to want to stand up for principles that are controversial in our generation. We need not solicit persecution, but neither should we remain silent in the presence of overwhelming evils, for this makes cowards of men. We should not go out of the path of duty to pick up a cross there is no need to bear, but neither should we side-step a cross that clearly lies within the path of duty". "We are in the world, and I fear some of us are getting too much like the world. Rather than continue a peculiar people, some are priding themselves on how much they are like everybody else, when the world is getting more wicked. The Lord as he prayed for his Apostles, said, ".....the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world."
