Why is it that our children can't read a Bible in school, but they can in prison?

Why do I have to swear on the Bible in court when the Ten Commandments cannot be displayed outside?

Because its 2009 - Parents and teachers would want to agree on what  Bible your talking about ( translated from the codex siniaticus or codex vaticanus ?) or what ?

I thought Christ set the Old Laws ( Ten commandments )aside and gave us a couple newones to follow-
NOBODY  can obey the 10 C s

I figured it out- Sombody is a Catholic priest.


"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."

First....the bible that would be used would be the one that was used from the inception of this great country!!!
Second...Jesus came to magnify the law, not destroy it.

Second most people probably break at least one of the 10 C s before getting out of bed in the morning-

Concerning the Ten Commandments in courthouses and legislatures: You cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery," and "Thou Shall Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians...It creates a hostile work environment.

That is both hillarious and disturbing at the same time.

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

Not a bad idea - I don't think most people don't  have a clue  what # 9 - DO NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS  means - it  is fairly common practice in life and right here in this forum- especially regarding  Michael Jackson-and  encouraged by the administrators/moderators no less !
