My Comment:  Isaiah 45:5  ‘I am the Lord, and there is no other; apart from me there is no God.  I will strengthen you, though you have not acknowledged me…’

Quotes from our Founding Fathers on Christian America that prove this monument to be a laughing stock and an abomination to God, and our country.  These are from Wiki-answers:

Here are some quotes and such from our founding fathers:

1) On the Mayflower Compact – “Having undertaken, for the glory of GOD, and advancement of the Christian faith, and honor of our King and Country, a voyage to plant the first colony in the northern parts of Virginia, do by these presents solemnly and mutually, in the presence of God, and one of another, covenant and combine our selves together…” [Argument from “No” Answerer: The Mayflower Compact was written 150 years prior to the Constitution. The Founding Fathers moved away from that perspective towards a belief that the country cannot impose one religion]

2) Then, John Adams stated “The general principles upon which the [Founding] Fathers achieved independence were the general principals of Christianity…”

3) Patrick Henry: “This is all the inheritance I give to my dear family. The religion of Christ will give them one which will make them rich indeed” [Argument from “No” Answerer: Patrick Henry was referring to his own private faith, not talking about the country as a whole]

4) 1782 Congress “The Congress of the United States recommends and approves the Holy Bible for use in all schools.” [N.B. The Constitution was written in 1787]

5) John Quincy Adams – “The United States of America were no longer Colonies. They were an independent nation of Christians” [N.B. John Quincy Adams was apprenticed to a lawyer, going to school at Harvard, and then becoming a member of the bar during the time in which the Constitution and Bill of Rights were being created — he is not one of the original founding fathers]

(Fox News)  The New Jersey-based group American Atheists unveiled the 1,500-bound granite bench Saturday as a counter to the religious monument in what’s called a free speech zone.

Group leaders say they believe it’s the first such atheist monument on government property.

About 200 people attended the event. Most were atheists, but a few protesters attended as well, including a group with signs that said, “Yankees Go Home.”

The atheists sued to try to have the Ten Commandments removed but dropped the case when they were told they could have a similar monument.
