Grand Junction, Colo.
Colorado lawmakers have been on a tear in recent years, passing a “gay marriage” lookalike even though voters rejected it, making the simple act of loaning a gun magazine to a buddy a criminal offense, creating a statewide tax and calling it a “fee” and refusing to allow a prosecution for the automobile accident death of a baby just days from his birthday.
But maybe they’ve needed some guidelines.
Now they have them.
Two billboards, which are part of a national campaign, have been posted on York Street in Denver and on the I-70 business loop in Grand Junction. They’re good. They should be. God wrote the text.
They list the Ten Commandments, which once were common but have become increasingly rare across the United States outside of homes and churches.
The campaign aims to change that, and the Colorado cities have become the latest places to join the nationwide display of billboards that declare the biblical code of ethics.
The billboards are headlined “Thus Saith the Lord” and list each commandment.

“Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
“Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven images.
“That shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain.”
The commandments billboard is intended to remind Americans of the Judeo-Christian ethics and morality in the Bible that were once common throughout America.
The campaign was launched by WND co-founder Joseph Farah, who aims to place the Ten Commandments in front of more American eyes than ever before.
The message has been under attack for years from “civil rights” organizations such as the American Civil Liberties Union, which pressed for their removal from schools, public buildings and even some churches.
