Tomorrow a three-judge panel of a federal Court of Appeals in Cincinnati, Ohio will hear a case involving a Foundations of American Law and Government display. Mat Staver will present the oral argument on behalf of Grayson County at 9:00 a.m. on Thursday.
In 2002, the ACLU filed suit challenging the Ten Commandments contained in the historical display, includes the Mayflower Compact, the Declaration of Independence, the Magna Carta, the Star-Spangled Banner, the Ten Commandments, the National Motto, the Preamble to the Kentucky Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and a picture of Lady Justice, with an explanation of the significance of each document.
In 2005, this same appeals court upheld the same display in Mercer County, Kentucky, which Liberty Counsel also defended. Since 2005, the ACLU has lost every case involving the Ten Commandments at the federal courts of appeals. Two of those involved Liberty Counsel cases, defending the same Foundations of Law and Government display.
Please pray for the argument on Thursday and for another victory in this case against the ACLU.
