God vs. Satan: Competing Arkansas Capitol Monuments Draw Fire
09-12-2016
Hundreds of people are objecting to two proposed monuments at the Arkansas State Capitol.
One of them is the Ten Commandments and the other is a Satan monument. More than 200 calls were received through a hotline set up for public comments.
Most of the calls were in objection to the Satan monument, but others argued that neither statue belongs on public property.
The Capitol Arts and Grounds Commission is set to discuss the proposals Tuesday.
Another group, the Saline Atheist and Skeptic Society, has proposed a "wall of separation" that would be erected between the Ten Commandments and Satan monuments.
