The Supreme Court has declared that the display of the Ten commandments at courthouses is unconstitutional.
What an enormous, monumental victory for all us radicallly NonChristianfundamentalists! What We have succeeded in censoring is the broadcast of moral imperatives that those of us with a modicum of intelligence (not to mention good will) would find compelling, regardless of our religious convictions. But after all, isn't it our duty as non-thinking mean spirited Americans to prevent the encroachment of religious doctrine at any cost.
I'm reminded of the proscription against public displays of Christian symbols at Santa Claus time which has, as a matter of fact, represented something of a tragedy for countless Jewish and Moslem children (including a couple of my own), much to the dismay also of their thoughtful parents.
