    The following is a poem written by Judge Roy Moore from Alabama. Judge Moore was sued by the ACLU for displaying the Ten Commandments in his courtroom foyer. He has been stripped of his judgeship and now they are trying to strip his right to practice law in Alabama. The judge's poem sums it up quite well.

    America the Beautiful,
    or so you used to be.
    Land of the Pilgrims' pride;
    I'm glad they'll never see.

    Babies piled in dumpsters,
    Abortion on demand,
    Oh, sweet land of liberty;
    your house is on the sand.

    Our children wander aimlessly
    poisoned by cocaine,
    Choosing to indulge their lusts,
    when God has said abstain.

    From sea to shining sea,
    our Nation turns away
    From the teaching of God's love
    and a need to always pray.

    We've kept God in our temples,
    how callous we have grown.
    When earth is but His footstool,
    and Heaven is His throne.

    We've voted in a government
    that's rotting at the core,
    Appointing Godless Judges
    who throw reason out the door,

    Too soft to place a killer
    in a well deserved tomb,
    But brave enough to kill a baby
    before he leaves the womb.

    You think that God's not angry,
    that our land's a moral slum?
    How much longer will He wait
    before His judgment comes?

    How are we to face our God,
    from Whom we cannot hide?
    What then is left for us to do,
    but stem this evil tide?

    If we who are His children,
    will humbly turn and pray;
    Seek His holy face
    and mend our evil way:

    Then God will hear from Heaven
    and forgive us of our sins,
    He'll heal our sickly land
    and those who live within.

    But, America the Beautiful,
    if you don't - then you will see,
    A sad but Holy God
    withdraw His hand from Thee.

    ~Judge Roy Moore

      I agree with adnil. This was a very amazing well done poem. It is very pwoerful with its words. I haven't believed in god in a long time. A lot of bad things have happened to me in my life. Too many to still believe. I hold nothing against those who still do. in fact, i look up to them. For not forgetting when things became hard. This was very touching. And it isn't right to be kicked out just for hanging the 10 comandments. Every courtroom should have them hanging. It was what this nation/world was built on. I'm glad our founding fathers can't see us now. They would be discusted and most likely die of high blood pressure from just the sight of how far their dream has fallen. Again this was very original and wonderful.

      That is one amazingly powerful powerful poem and i for one have to whole hardily agree with the judge, I love this country with all my heart and yet I'm so sadden over what the(people) are doing ,I see nothing wrong with having the ten commandments in our courts or even having in God we trust on our money and I say Bravo to the Judge hope he gets this published for all to see
