theweaselkingUtah sect proves that there is a God - by suing the city for having a 10 commandmnets monument without allowing them to add (at their own expense) Moses' OTHER seven commandments.
They're suing on the grounds that a publically funded 10 commandments monument on public ground violates the Establishment clause - "the defendants give preference and endorsement to one particular set of religious beliefs by allowing the Ten Commandments monument to remain in a public park or in a forum within the public park supported by taxpayers and disallow a similar display of the religious tenets of Summum,"
This, of course, is correct - and applies equally to Islam, Mormonism, Shinto, Discordianism, and worship of the Dreaded One-Eyed Trouser Snake Who Will Devour The World.
(The commandments they're talking about are here)
