100 lawsuits

Call me crazy, but it would seem this idea by religious groups to install more Ten Commandment displays would violate the ruling handed down yesterday and led to nothing more than 100 or so more court cases that will travel through our legal system for years to come.

Why? Well, first off they won't mean any time honored tradition ideas that were mentioned by Breyer. These monuments won't be forty years old before they face lawsuits. I'd be surprised if they last forty days.

Secondly, if they are put up by overtly religious groups, I would think that would qualify them as overtly religious monuments.

But what I would much rather see in some of these cases is, once the Christian groups get their monuments up, other religious groups throwing up monuments of their own. Twice the size and even more ostentatious. Something to make the Christian groups stand up and say, "Wait a minute, we don't want that, let's sue!" and have the judges laugh them out of the courtroom.

But that's just me.

And no, I don't hate the Christians, I just don't like some of the things they do that I deem forceful of their beliefs. Everyone has a right to worship whatever higher being they choose, just as long as their worship doesn't interfere with others and their everyday life.
