As long as the "Ten Suggestions" are a symbol of an official recognition of one or more religions over other religions, it is an unconstitutional practice. It doesn't matter how people re-word things to make it sound neutral. The Ten Commandments are not neutral. To have them posted in courtrooms is unconstitutional because it is a recognition of the Judeo-Christian religions over all other religions. And as long as discrimination results from this recognition in the courts, and I can tell you from my own experiences in family court, having been descriminated against because I am not a Christian, the issue is far from being a minor one. Yes, choose your battles carefully. I choose to fight discrimination. This battle is one I have chosen very carefully.

People keep saying that the "ten suggestions" are universally good principles to live by, and in this way people try to render them neutral. This is simply not the case. Some of the Commandments are just fairly good ideas for living a good life. But some of them are specific to certain religions and have nothing whatever to do with morality or ethical living, or even just being good. Here are the particular commandments that are problematic for people who are not of the Judeo-Christian religions:

1. "I am the Lord your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt..."
   
2. "You shall have no other gods besides Me...Do not make a sculpted image or any likeness of what is in the heavens above..."
   
4. "Remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy"
