The Supreme Court heard oral arguments on whether a city violated a religious group's free-speech rights by refusing to put its monument in a public park near a similar Ten Commandments display. Should Christians support Ten Commandments displays if they are only allowed for historical reasons? Should such monuments matter at all to Christians who believe the relationship to God is personal matter? Or is it vitally important for the survival of a just society to official recognize that all rights come from God?
