How do democrats and republicans feel on the 10 Commandments being posted at courthouses for a school project.

Question

Its mainly the opinions I need but if I have just a general knowledge then it will work for me.

Answer 1

I think you better get permission from the ACLU first.

Heaven forbid that someone be offended by that "thou shalt not kill" thing...

Answer 2

I wonder even more how Christians feel about it. *laughs* isn't it funny that Christians forget that Jesus cast out the Ten Commandments? To follow the Commandments is to pretend Jesus never existed.

Jewish people follow the Ten Commandments... it's Moses who they revere instead of Jesus.

*sighs* what has happened to this country? Doesn't anyone read a book anymore? Or do they just follow the rest of the lemmings off the cliff?

I LOVE seeing the Ten Commandments... it makes me smile.

I really think too that its NOT a Democrat or Republican issue... but the USA is dominated by the media, keep lapping up the controversy.

Answer 3

I think it violates your concept of the separation of church and state.
Can't be religious and a good American these days. It's not politically correct.
The Ten Commandments are the basis of faith for every sect of Christianity, Judaism and Islam......I'm still trying to figure out who the heck you're offending. Must be those atheists or sun worshippers.
Moses had no idea what he was starting when he brought them down from the mountain. Maybe now that he's president of the NRA, he'll do something to straighten 'em out.

Answer 4

Geez, how guy circumstances do you will possibly desire to pay attention that in view that Jesus got here the policies are diverse, God replaced his techniques and got here down as Jesus and reset the policies. Numbers 23:19 God isn't a guy, that he might desire to lie, nor a son of guy, that he might desire to alter his techniques. Does he communicate and then no longer act? Does he promise and not fulfill? Oh crap, ummm properly possibly we'd desire to continually get the stones waiting huh?

Answer 5

I have no problem with it. Even when I wasn't a Christian, I had no problem with it. They're a good set of rules to have. Don't steal, don't lie, don't commit adultery, take a day of rest, acknowledge your God, don't covet, don't murder.
Our country used to be based on them. Some of them have been lost now, and it's more like the five or six commandments. The rest are just guidelines.
Oh well. Can't have everything, I guess.

Answer 6

republicans are more conservative than democrats, meaning they are more for the 10 commandments. one commandment is thou shalt not kill-democrats are for abortions. the Bible, where the 10 commandments are located, is against gay marriage, whereas the democrats are for it. The republicans are more supportive of the 10 commandments than the democrats.

Answer 7

Well democrats enforce a seperation of church ansd state so they shouldn't be here. Conservatives hate change so they think they should. Of course thats generalizing as there are people from both parties on both sides.

Answer 8

I think about the same of both parties would not mind. But the Supreme Court ruled that it constitutes the mingling of religion and politics. HOGWASH. The useless ACLU had a lot of influence on that. Proof that "The majority rules" is not always the case.

Answer 9

I'm non-partisan, but lean left, and I believe totally in the separation of church and state. The 10 commandments belong in the church and on church grounds, or in the homes of those who wish to have them there. But, not in any public buildings or grounds.

Answer 10

I don't see the big deal. They aren't legal authority in the United States, and I don't think anyone would mistake them for law. Either you're religious or you're not. If you are, you probably like them being recognized as significant. If you're not, they don't have any more meaning than a mosaic map of the world, and shouldn't offend.
