I believe that the Ten Commandments have a rightful place in any courthouse who would like to display them in their courthouse. This case has come up in several different states and the results vary.

Because their is no right or wrong the issue is strictly an opinion and does not have a definite law to back it up. If people are heavily offended the simpler soul tion would be to just get rid of the Ten Commandments or let everyone put their religous laws in the courthouse, and I would think it would be easier to just remove the Ten Commandments.
