[QUOTE="Danny Tanner, post: 2294712, member: 10619"] Since the Jewish community isn't a majority here, I was referring to Christianity. Considering the commandments were originally Jewish, I would imagine the Star of David is more to show respect to their origin rather than endorse Judaism. Even including both, for a Government to openly endorse two religions while not extending that courtesy to the world's other 5,000+ religions, is still wrong. Endorse all or endorse none. I haven't seen anywhere stating that other religions may not erect monuments on state property, and I'd rather not see the lawn littered with thousands of statues and symbols, but if they allow it, fair is fair!
