The Ten Commandments
The Supreme Court of the United States handed down a ruling in which displays of the Ten Commandments could or could not be displayed on public property depending on the context of situation. In order to decide the constitutionality of such a display, someone needs to find it to be nuetral. If the display has the intent to endorse a religion, it is illegal. Confused? Sure. Basically it means that no more Ten Commandment stuff can be put up but if it's old and been there for a while, it's okay. That saves half of Washington (including the Justices' own chambers) from being sandblasted but keeps future monuments from being erected. Cowards.
