Let me be the first to applaud their decision! IMHO they made the right call.
You break the rules - you pay the price!
'nuff said.

From the article:
""To acknowledge God cannot be a violation of the Canons of Ethics. Without God there can be no ethics," Moore testified."

Another article (http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=519&ncid=716&e=2&u=/ap/20031113/ap_on_re_us/ten_commandments)Moore said he had consulted with his attorneys and with political and religious leaders and would make an announcement next week which he said "could alter the course of this country." He did not elaborate. He could appeal to the Alabama Supreme Court.
My guess is he's going to be running for office soon on a "Bring God back to goverment" platform, but that's only a guess.

Oh my, he certainly has a big head doesn't he?
Alter the course of this country indeed; who the hell does he think he is?
Why do bible-thumpers always get megalomaniacal when someone comes along and bops them on the head saying, "No. Bad bible-thumper, don't do that, stop it. You're wrong."
So very silly.

From the article above:Moore said he had consulted with his attorneys and with political and religious leaders and would make an announcement next week which he said "could alter the course of this country." He did not elaborate. If I could take a guess at what kooky plan is rolling around inside that pea brain of his, I'd say he's planning to continue pushing the issue by spearheading or promoting litigation, or by pushing for a constitutional amendment allowing Commandments displays on public property (thereby repealing a portion of the First Amendment).

I can just imagine Roy's next big campaign...

Roy also stated that both the United States and the Alabama consitutions acknowledged god.
The United States constituion does not, of course, but the Alabama constitution does, in the preamble.
However, in my research, I discovered something interesting. Here is Section 3 of the Alabama Constitution (1901):
That no religion shall be established by law; that no preference shall be given by law to any religious sect, society, denomination, or mode of worship; that no one shall be compelled by law to attend any place of worship; nor to pay any tithes, taxes, or other rate for building or repairing any place of worship, or for maintaining any minister or ministry; that no religious test shall be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under this state; and that the civil rights, privileges, and capacities of any citizen shall not be in any manner affected by his religious principles.
Ray should learn not to cite documents that can be used against him.

Woo-woo doo-doo, so true.
I wish someone would hurry up and catch him with a hooker or a crack pipe so we can move on to the next woo-woo.

Not to stray off-topic,
But I am finally participating in a thread with the famous Upchurch!
I am honored!

The state constitution is being overhauled. I do not know if it has gone into effect yet or not. I think that sentiment is still in there, though.

It doesn't matter if it's getting overhauled, that is the constitution that was in effect when Moore was in violation of it.
