sorry to miss out on this.
anyway, you pointed out that the 10 commandments are mostly applicable to civil cases, aka cases to regulate personal behavior, aka things we should or should not do to get to heaven.
the govt has no place to tell a citizen what he/she should do with his/her own personal lives as long as it doesnt infringe upon the rights of another citizen.

Like it or not pal, you throw out Hell No God Damn it....and you will offend some people. Do you talk like that in front of your mom? To your children? Will you? It might not be a criminal issue, but it is definately a civil issue.

yes, i say god damn it in front of my parents and they dont care. why? 1) they're not christian 2) they're polytheistic 3)they're not overly religious.
and as for whether or not i would say that in front of my kids, i have
no clue. i'm far away from having one.

and federal law is above state law. the federal district court and the court of appeals have both rejected this case.
