Thou Shalt Resolve This Dispute

The Supreme Court has decided to wade into the contentious issue of 10 commandments displays on public property. The Court accepted cases from two Circuit Courts that reached conflicting conclusions on the issue. The Fifth Circuit ruled against a homeless man in Texas who challenged a stone marker in a public park (where he lived, presumably), while the Sixth Circuit barred two Kentucky counties from posting the commandments in their courtrooms. Hopefully, the Court will clear up this nonsense once and for all (by agreeing with the Sixth Circuit, of course).
