The Ten Commandments display in Steubenville’s Murphy Park in the US state were placed there after the Baptist Church adopted a section of the park.

However the plaque was removed by the City Manager Jim Mavramatis on August 14 after an atheist-led organisation wrote to the city manager of the area to criticise the plaque and claimed it was unconstitutional.

The Freedom From Religious Foundation (FFRF) said the Ten Commandments display “violates the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment” and it should not be displayed as it prohibits the worship of other gods”.

The letter also said: “The government has no business telling citizens which God they must have, or that they have any God at all.”
