My issue is that I don't want the bible to be considered a controlling opinion in a legal case. However, it could be used as dicta just like Justininians code is. In addition, I don't want the gov. giving any money to support a church. Paying a church to help the poor I don't mind so much.

But having historical legal codes on display in a court house just does not seem like a big issue to me. What if the Magna Carta was in the court house? Or Justinians Code? Or Hammurabi's code? People misquote the ten commandments all the time. It would be nice if they were around more so people would know what they are talking about.

Am I wrong? Is this a big violation of church and state?
You are right, this is the dumbing down of our nation's moral core and cultural history by the left.
