Ten Commandments poll

The town of Lockland, Ohio is another of those places that worships a graven idol, an ugly stone block with the ridiculous 10 commandments on it . They never read it, though, or they'd notice that Commandment #2 says they shouldn't worship graven idols…and actually, if they read them at all, they'd know that the only two that even come close to real laws in our nation are the ones that say don't kill and don't steal. The rest? Dross and superstition.

The town is being sued to have the nonsense removed, and of course the newspaper has to run a poll. Do you think that if we run this up to a good strong majority for removal that the city will send out a crew to dynamite the monstrosity?

Should Lockland be forced to remove the 10 Commandments from its town hall?

Yes 25.48%

No 74.52%
