Cliff,
I am a student in college in St. Cloud, Minnesota, I am totally stunned that the Illinois government would even attempt to put the Ten Commandments in schools. It really bugs me when the Constitution strictly forbids such things going on.
Even though there are some things in the Ten Commandments that I think are really good, I am against anything religious being posted or put in public buildings, especially schools. It just corrupts kids when they are young, to say that there is a God, and that those kids should follow this God.
Thank you for sending me these newsletters.
Jeff
