It's no accident that our founding documents WERE based on Christianity. That is why the Ten Commandments are displayed in courtrooms, as our laws are based on them. If someone chooses not to believe in the Ten Commandments, that's their choice, but if those laws are broken there are still consequences. I don't see anyone here advocating a theocracy.
Is there a statute that requires you to honor your father and mother? Is there a statute that stops you from having any other gods before you? What about keeping the Sabbath? While there are parallels between some of the 10 commandments and our laws they are not the basis for our laws.
If that's true we should probably have them removed. No wait, your friends at the ACLU are already doing that. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smiliesmack.gif
