When judges start putting the Ten Commandments in their courtrooms, and they are not making an academic observation about the importance of some of those commandments in the development of our legal tradition, it smells like using a government office and taxpayer dollars to endorse a particular set of religious views. I don't care for that, and if I were Jewish I'd be particularly irked.
And I think it's a sign of weakness of some level that some people are working so hard to get their religious views some sort of governmental imprimatur instead of worrying whether they are otherwise leading Christian lives.
