Groups Decide Not to Press Suit Over Pennsylvania Ten Commandments Display
WEST CHESTER, Pa. (AP) - Groups that filed suit to force the removal of a Ten Commandments display from a courthouse facade have decided not to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.
The American Civil Liberties Union filed the suit in October 2001 on behalf of the Freethought Society, an atheist group, and Sally Flynn, a Pocopson Township resident, contending the plaque violated the principle of separation of church and state.

THE COMMANDMENTS

No you aren't, and even if you were, the county shouldn't be telling me that you are.
