Another religious monument case for the Supreme Court — this time it's the Seven Aphorisms of Summum.

SCOTUSblog reports:
The newly granted case on monuments on public property — Pleasant Grove City v. Summum (06-665) — will return the Court to the thorny issue of government control of expressive displays in city parks and other public places. The case grows out of a dispute between a city in Utah and a religious sect, Summum, that sought to place in a city park — along with other monuments, including one dedicated to the Ten Commandments — a monument to the tenets of Summum’s faith, the “Seven Aphorisms.”
What are the Seven Aphorisms of Summum?
  1. THE PRINCIPLE OF PSYCHOKINESIS
  2. THE PRINCIPLE OF CORRESPONDENCE
  3. THE PRINCIPLE OF VIBRATION
  4. THE PRINCIPLE OF OPPOSITION
  5. THE PRINCIPLE OF RHYTHM
  6. THE PRINCIPLE OF CAUSE AND EFFECT
  7. THE PRINCIPLE OF GENDER
So, expect to hear a lot more about Summum.
