Tennessee county sued over Ten Commandments plaque

By TRAVIS LOLLER
Associated Press

A northeast Tennessee man is suing his county for illegally promoting Christianity, claiming officials rejected his request to post a display on church-state separation in the same courthouse where a Ten Commandments plaque has been displayed for years.

The suit claims Johnson County commissioners in June rejected Ralph Stewart’s bid to hang two posters at the Mountain City courthouse’s “public forum” area, one titled “The Ten Commandments Are Not the Foundation of American Law.”

really ..so America has no laws against "Murder" "Stealing"?
we used to have laws against Adultry, children that did not obey parents were put where they were reminded of th eir wrong thinking.... Have no gods before God...well devil worship was once a crime
I guess m urder an d stealing i s the only commandments that is still un lawful...sometimes depends ...

I posted a lot of info on FB today about America's Christian Foundation ,but I guess many will be offended by the truth

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
