If its public property, be that a courthouse, a school, or any other government owned property that the US Taxpayers pay for, and a Judeo/Christian symbol such as the ten commandments is posted there, then federal government is de facto endorsing one religion over another.
Since when did a state courthouse become a federal institution? The taxpayers in AL pay for that building, and they seemed fine with the monument being there.[/b]
Exactly, the majority of people wanted the monument to stay. But guess what, the Liberals responded the loudest cry and came running to support one group of people over all the others. Just as they always do.
