The first amendment says: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. Legal interpretation of this amendment is that there shall be separation of church and state. This means that the state shall not engage in religious activity, neither by promoting it or prohibiting it. In the case of displaying the Ten Commandments, the state would be in violation of the law by displaying it, because it would be promoting a religious belief on State property. The state would also be in violation of the law by preventing someone from displaying the Ten Commandments on private property. This is not rocket science. Orca
