There's a very easy answer to whether or not this should be allowed -- and I wonder that people don't hear it (or say it) very often... Every judge knows beyond the shadow of a doubt, at the mere utterance of the suggestion, that if the same case were brought and the subject were a pentacle instead of the 10 commandments that the answer would be absolutely, unequivocally, NO. So therefore the answer _must_ be NO for the ten commandments as well. The case is only even given credence -- the opportunity to succeed because it's a christian symbol and not a symbol of a currently less popular religion. The same sort of BS happened with a cop in Arlington TX who wanted to wear a gold cross pinned to his uniform because he felt it would make people more comfortable in the thought that he was there to help them... "yea, the guy with the pentacle on his living room wall is going to be _SO_ much more comfortable when you come into his house". Fortunately they fired him when he refused to take it off.
