Louisiana's Ten Commandments Law Signals a Broader Christian Agenda

[irosie91]

Why are people in such a tizzy over displaying the ten commandments in school? It isn't like public schools teach children to read or anything.

New report highlights literacy problems in Louisiana: 'It is unfathomable'

Less than half of Louisiana public school students in kindergarten, first, second and third grades are reading on grade level, according to new figures released Tuesday by the state Department

ROFLMAO----so true---most of the third graders will not be able to read it. I is old----when I was a kid we did the Pledge of Allegiance AND a little reading from the bible (usually a bit of psalm) and "the lord's prayer" ---for a WHOLE YEAR---the fat kid who was next to me intoned "HOLLOWED BE THY NAME" my day started out with THAT!!!!!

We are what we have become. Nothing to be proud of.

The popular view is that America has no culture. Or, if it has, everyone else's is better.

Lefties support the state dragging boys into clinics for castration without notifying parents but they are scared of a plaque or a poster on the wall. The only agenda is to insure 1st Amendment rights in schools.

That is not the law, whitehall, you know it, so you know you are a liar.

Given the sorry state of public education I doubt students could even read them

Okay. Then why do we in Prog city after Prog city a good percentage of residents the same and spending several times more per student. And over the last several years we see them perpetuating real crimes en masse in many ways as we see in videos endlessly.

‘Gov. Jeff Landry wants his state to be at the forefront of a national movement to advance legislation with a Christian worldview.

The crowd at Our Lady of Fatima Catholic School in Lafayette, La., applauded Gov. Jeff Landry as he signed bill after bill this week on public education in the state, making it clear he believed God was guiding his hand.

One new law requires that transgender students be addressed by the pronouns for the gender on their birth certificates (“God gives us our mark,” he said). Another allows public schools to employ chaplains (“a great step for expanding faith in public schools”).

Then he signed into law a mandate that the Ten Commandments be hung in every public classroom, demonstrating a new willingness for Louisiana to go where other states have not. Last month, Louisiana also became the first state to classify abortion pills as dangerous controlled substances.

“We don’t quit,” Mr. Landry, a Republican, said at the signing ceremony.

Taken together, the measures have signaled the ambition of the governor and the Republican-led Legislature to be at the forefront of a growing national movement to create and interpret laws according to a particular conservative Christian worldview. And Mr. Landry, a Catholic who has been vocal about his faith’s influence in shaping his politics, wants to lead the charge.'

That agenda of course is one hostile to settled, accepted Establishment Clause jurisprudence and the Framers’ mandate that church and state remain separate.

And legal challenges will of course be futile, with cases ultimately coming before a Supreme Court dominated by conservative ideologues likewise hostile to settled, accepted Establishment Clause jurisprudence and the Framers’ mandate that church and state remain separate.

Unlike you atheists, Christians follow the laws of God.

 

[jbrownson0831]

This Supreme Court, dominated by blind partisan conservative ideologues, has already demonstrated its contempt for settled, accepted precedent with its reckless, irresponsible Dobbs decision.

It’s perfectly reasonable and appropriate to expect the Court’s conservative ideologues to likewise have contempt for settled, accepted Establishment Clause precedent.

Libtards are evil, conservatives follow God.

 

[jbrownson0831]

And rather than addressing these and other serious issues, Republicans waste time and resources on ridiculous idiocy such as the ten commandments.

Poor facediapered atheist living in mommy's basement.....

If you don't agree with and follow Dimtard wacko beliefs they hate you.

Unlike you atheists, Christians follow the laws of God.

And you are welcome to do so. If your faith dictates how you live, I am happy for you.

The issue is when some Christians demand that I follow the laws of "God".

A waste of time and money

And so it starts....

Religious leader wants to display Indian scriptures in Louisiana public classrooms

A spokesperson of the Hindu community is seeking to have ancient Sanskrit scriptures displayed in public classrooms alongside the Ten Commandments.

And the Hindu community will cover the cost of the posters, so no school funds need be used.

BTW, who is paying for the 10 Commandment posters?

Good for them, this is what they wanted.

Keep religious messages out of the schools and let them stay at home like they should
