Myself being from Alabama hope that someone makes Moore a copy of the 10 commandments and gags him with it. Alabama is suffering from budget cuts like many other states in the union. I have heard cost estimating Moores self-rightous stance costing the state over $10k/day at some points.
To me, Moore is a hypocryte. Hes a sinner. Something about erecting golden statues and worshiping them?? Thats how I see his rock commandment statue. He erected its cause above himself, his people, his state, even his god. For that, he should BURN!!! (maybe thats too far)
I just want him to go away. Most all that I talk with in this state believe his actions to be too religious, egotistical, and a embarrasment. He would have no chance for governer from what I have heard and seen.
Also, I believe alabama's constitution upholds the seperation of church and state. Artical 1 Sections 3 & 4:
Section 3
That no person within this State shall, upon any pretence whatever, be deprived of the inestimable privilege of worshipping God in the manner most agreeable to his own conscience ; nor be hurt, molested, or restrained in his religious profession. Sentiments, or persuasions, provided he does not disturb others in their religious worship.
Section 4
Religious freedom.
That no religion shall be established by law; that no preference shall be given by law to any religious sect, society, denomination, or mode of worship; that no one shall be compelled by law to attend any place of worship; nor to pay any tithes, taxes, or other rate for building or repairing any place of worship, or for maintaining any minister or ministry; that no religious test shall be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under this state; and that the civil rights, privileges, and capacities of any citizen shall not be in any manner affected by his religious principles.
