Justices ponder Ten Commandments displays: Court hears oral arguments
If the U.S. Supreme Court prohibits public displays of the Ten Commandments nationwide, all heck may break loose, say some religious conservatives. They predict that the furor would exceed the reaction when a California court ruled that “under God” did not belong in the Pledge of Allegiance.
The high court heard oral arguments on March 2 on cases concerning displays of the Decalogue in Texas and Kentucky. Its written decision isn’t expected until June.
