    IANAL.

    If it’s only the ten commandments, then it establishes that religion via display in government buildings. If there were other religions along side it, might be more wiggle room, but Satanists often challenge this by demanding a statue of baphomet be also displayed.

    There’s tons of cases about this that make it very clear.
