luzribeiroJust on topic:
Ten Commandments school displays could soon be required in Louisiana
"Legislation that would require all schools that receive state money to display the Ten Commandments in each classroom gained approval Thursday from the Louisiana Senate and is on its way to the House for apparent final approval."
The First Amendment is supposed to protect the American public from having someone else's religion imposed on them.
Obviously that doesn't count when zealots have an agenda.
"Sen. Adam Bass, R-Bossier City, carried the bill for its author, Rep. Dodie Horton, R-Haughton, and presented the Ten Commandments as a historical document that merited a place of prominence in classrooms."
But teaching an honest portrayal of slavery is prohibited. Got it.
I’m willing to bet people supporting this would lose their shit if the 10 pillars of Islam were posted next to the Commandments. Or the tenets of the Satanic Temple. Except that's exactly what freedom of religion requires. RIGHT?
