Summum is a self-described church, founded in 1975 in Salt Lake City
in response to alleged communications from “Advanced Beings.” Summum
had sued Pleasant Grove City in federal court, claiming that because
the city displays a Ten Commandments monument in their city park, the First Amendment compells the city to accept and display Summum’s proposed “Seven Aphorisms of Summum” monument as well.
Simply put, imagine your child riding his bike to the park and seeing these monuments side by side. One saying that it is the Commandments of God which our forefathers used as a guide when writing our constitution and the other is a vision that someone received in 1975 that states "advanced beings" created the universe and here are the "seven aphorisms" they passed on to us.
The implications of losing this case at the Supreme court level could cause havoc for local governments ... forcing them to either erect opposing monuments (potentially offensive messages) or remove long-standing and well-established patriotic, religious, and historical displays altogether to avoid being sued.
We must win this case! I can't believe this case made it this far. The mere thought that a monument endorsing Aliens could be erected next to God's law is a disgrace and an outrage.
For our kid's and the sake of their future, let us pray that the Holy Spirit be present in that courtroom and moving through the prevailing judge throughout this case.
