I used to remember those but leftists tore down any reference to the Ten Commandments over a bogus interpretation of a letter that Thomas Jefferson wrote to a Baptist church in Danbury, Connecticut.
Here is a little history just because I like history. You won't read it because you never read this far. Plus you think every word I type is a lie so even if you read it you won't believe it.
Twice, that I know of, an excerpt of that letter was used in a Supreme Court ruling.
The first one was Reynolds v. United States in 1878 against members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who were practicing polygamy. They quoted an excerpt of Jefferson's letter where they said that building "a wall of separation between church and State" does not apply because of several lame excuses for violating the 1st Amendment. BTW I am not supporting polygamy. I am however, supporting the 1st amendment and essentially they had no right to legislate against polygamy and only go after members of the LDS Church while ignoring it when it occurred in other places. Plus the LDS Church was all by themselves in Utah with nothing around them. When they got there the land was owned by Mexico and Mexico didn't care because no one wanted Utah.
The second time it was used was in 1947 in Iverson v Board of Education. Justice Hugo Black wrote that the phrase "there must be a wall of separation of church and state" meant to keep the government out of the church and not the other way around. Justice Black said that wall must be kept very high.
The very next day the media reported the exact opposite of what Justice Black had said. And ever since then "separation of church and state" meant to exclude the church from everything. Even subsequent court cases acted on the idea that what Jefferson mean was a separation of church from every facet of society.
So I would know what it said in the Ten Commandments but you guys lied to remove all monuments to it.
Well there's also Exodus 20:1-17, Deuteronomy 5:6-21 and Book of Mormon — Mosiah 13:11-24.
I am not bearing false witness against my neighbor.
Book of Mormon — 2 Nephi 9:34, "Wo unto the liar, for he shall be thrust down to hell." And THAT is why being a leftists is so very hard to do because it is founded on lies and every argument off of that corrupt foundation is also a lie.
