LOL Dago, your point is lost, especially when you go back and read through your posts.

Bill O'Reilly makes a competent case pro Bodhi...
I was always for legalized pot, but O'reilly makes a good point why it should not be legalized as well as a take on the 10 commandments issue......
I dont personally need guidance from a higher power and have always argued for the separation of church and state, but if you look at the bigger picture my argument kinda losses weight if you consider that there are a lot of people that really do need guidance from a god..They just do.... And if having the 10 commandments outside the courtroom helps one person who needs help then leave the damned statue where it is!!! Its not going to hurt anyone leaving it where it is!
 I also recommend reading O'reilly's point even if you don't like him!

O'reilly makes no sense, how does "And if drugs ever become legalized, he'll be able to blow that pot smoke right in your kids' face.  Is that the kind of society you want, where any kind of boorish behavior is acceptable" get involved with the ten commandments? He dances off the subject and prays on your fears to persuade your thinking.

"This is about a significant power in this country that does not want any mention or reminder of spirituality in public, period"

That would be the supreme court, but why should we listen to them?

His argument comes down to " if we take the ten commandments out of government, total anarchy will break out"

If there is any chance that legalizing pot would allow any pot smoker to blow pot smoke in my 10 year olds face whenever he wanted, then it should never be legalized period...

When I go in front of a judge, what is it that I am asked to swear upon?  "Hint"=Its a book"
How long have we been swearing on this? So help me who?

But what did that have to do with the ten commandments? That no ten commandments means they will legalize pot?

Do booze hounds pour alcohol down your 10 year old's throat?

Do people taking prescription medication throw pills at your 10 year old?

Going to the extremes to make a point is often the sign of a lack of an argument.

Why was this thread started at all ? To rehearse everything from the original thread ?

Anyway, my opinion, a court can't afford even the appearance of bias.

A muslim/christian (for example) hate-crime is unfortunately only a matter of time before it happens.
