SCOTUS -- our true rulers

I wonder how many people have been converted to a religion or church by reading the ten commandments on a granite monument in a city park or in public building. There's an old legal maxim that should apply here, "De minimus non curat Lex." (The law does not concern itself with trifles.) What do I care whether the city fathers want to honor or even recommend Judaism, Christianity, Islam or any other religion, except Scientography(copyright).

They don't have the power to make me join any of them,so what's the big fuss? The Supreme Court should have given the people demanding the removal the Commandments a stiff dope-slap and isssued an opinion consisting of the phrase above. Don't they have anything better to do that waste time quibbling over the idea that a Christmas tree or the Ten Commandments bothers some thin-skinned or irrational twits? Don't tell me it's the principle of the thing. It's silly.
