CBS Radio news - The Mobile 10 Commandments monument

[Judi Lynn]

has been ordered to be moved this morning.

Report at 9:00 a.m. EST.

That should whip them into a frenzy.

1. It's the rapture, man.

The end of the world for sure. Cuz you know all them non Christians are gonna bring our country down, just like they did Germany's back in WWII.

12. The graven idol

should be placed right inside the door to Roy Moore's chambers--so he can't ever get back in.

2. I mis-read your headline as "It can move around"

And, in a flash, the solution came to me. They can build
"Ten Commandment-Mobiles", with each of the ten equipped
with one (or even all ten!) of the commandments.

So they could roll the "Though shalt not commit adultery"
Commandment-Mobile to wherever Bill Clinton is speaking.

And they can roll the "Thou shalt have no other gods before
me" Commandment-Mobile from mosque to synagogue to mosque
(being silly enough to not recognize the irony in what
they're doing).

And they can take the "Thou shalt not kill" Commandment
Mobile and hide it in the Lincoln Tunnel or some such, as
they clearly don't believe in that commandment anyway.

The Ten Commandments -- coming soon to a town near you!

Montgomery-Ten Commandments
A moving company is beginning preparations to move the Ten Commandments from the rotunda of the Alabama Judicial Building to another place in the building. The director of the Christian Defense Coalition, Patrick Mahoney, says state officials told him that moving equipment is already in the building. Two state police officers and two moving company officials could be seen this morning studying the monument to best determine how to move it.
(snip) Mahoney doesn't know whether the monument's new location will be accessible to the public. Protest organizers asked the crowd outside the Judicial Building not to rush the building or do anything else except pray. (snip/)

GREAT IDEA, ATLANT! You just might become a saint to the "holy-rollers!"

7. WHAT is this crap

about moving it elsewhere IN the building?

WIll there be a new case?

WHO made that decision? They need to be suspended as well - is this some kind of end run?

It would look great next to the copy machine..

8. temporary storage

in the event it goes to SCOTUS....should the "high" court rule favorably it will be rolled back......reported on Democracy Now yesterday.


It ain't over 'til it's over.

9. FINLLY IT IS GONE

Just saw it being moved out

[booksenkatz]

10. I had heard

that there was some concern about the stability of the floors in the "non-public" storage room for this monstrosity, and that there were offices below, the occupants of which were concerned for their safety. Imagine having that thing come crashing through the ceiling over your desk! I wonder if that issue has been resolved? Maybe they've reinforced the floor or something and can send the contractor's bill to Moore.

13. You're a lucky one!

I'd just swallowed, otherwise there would be liquid dripping down my monitor and a VERY unhappy keyboard! ;-)

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! What a mental image!!!

11. Today is a great victory against Religious slavery

This should send a powerful message to any Christian zealot to not try to 'christianize' America any more.

The next thing that has got to go is the 'under god' pledge.....
