Decalogues
There has been an attempt, by the now defunct "Ten
Commandments Commission", to post the decalogue in public schools.
Just another infraction to watch for.
Originally, there were approximately 145 monoliths of the "Ten
Commandments" distributed by the Fraternal Order of Eagles throughout the
United States. The following list shows the status of 70
of those.
- If you live
in a town where one of these remain, contact one of the national groups about
how to proceed with a complaint.
