Put Commandments Where They Belong

8/25/03: The real truth about the Ten Commanments monument in Alabama is, who gives a shit?

It's a laughing stock non-issue. Sure, it was a huge waste of taxpayer money. All anyone really needed to do was download a .jpg of the original ten commandments from the web and hang it on a wall. Then, if any die-hard athiests tour the building, they could take it down. When the Fundamnetalists show up, they can hang it on the wall again.

I downloaded this photograph of the real ten commandments from the web, and it even has Jesus in it. The State of Alalbama could use this instead, and hide it when those loud-mouth athiests come around.

Let's face it. The only real reference to God in the ten commandments is the one about "I am the Lord thy God," and most Republican's think that's a reference to Bush-Lite anyway.

So here's how to get over the dilemma. Move the thing to Liberty Bible College for a couple of years and charge ten dollars a head so people can see the monument to liberal tyranny. Then, when the audiences for the damn thing die down, break it up into little pieces and sell them on Pat Robertson's web site for a hundred bucks a chunk. Then we can all share in a monument to a God no one in America argues with. Making money.
