Law Founding fathers rolling over in their graves

[VinceArch]

Better start taxing the churches if that's the case.

We aren’t a Christian majority country. If you take away Mormons, JW’s, and 7th day adventists (which all have extra canonical books that fly directly in the face of the Bible) you’re well below half.

This is a state law in Louisiana, not a federal law.


84 percent

Of Louisiana adults, 84 percent are Christian, 13 percent are unaffiliated with any religion and about 2 percent are non-Christian faiths, the largest share being Buddhist at about 1 percent.

This would seem to be a rather clear cut violation of the separation of Church and State. Not even a conservative SCOTUS will uphold this once challenged, and it will be challenged.

To the financial detriment of the state and school districts

 

[king hippo]

agreed, now if only they got rid of the woke religion too...but i guess that doesn't count cause it's (D)ifferent?

Excuse me? What religion are you referencing? What Quranic holy texts have been required by the state to be publicly displayed in schools?

Shit tier whataboutism. Even your 'whatabout' isn't valid.

The separation of church and state is constitutionally mandated. Federal law supercedes state law.

His trolling has gotten so low effort I’ve decided to stop responding. It took me longer with his Super Nintendo account but I decided quicker with this one.

not sure what to make of this.

i think their should be a separation of church and state, and i include woke in that category too.

what did that guy do to you people?

Religious people are dumb but people should stop caring about what these cans thought. Its annoying how people think corpses get to determine what is and isn't a human right. You're mocking people for following the 10 commandments but the bill of rights is another set of 10 commandments(Moses and thus the 10 commandments aren't real but thats a different issue).

Its created a world where able to believe in an imaginary friend in peace is a right but housing and healthcare aren't. And thats a really fucking weird world

The dead are meant to serve the living not the other way around. People lose sight of that.

How
How do you manage to always have the most obnoxious take on every single thing lol

Louisiana becomes 1st state to require the Ten Commandments be posted in classrooms



Commandment 1: Yahweh or the highway, bitches.

Commandment 2: see rule 1

Commandment 3: don’t say god damnit, Jesus Christ dude, or “Yahweh or the highway, bitches.”

Commandment 4: Sundays are magical god days.

Yup. Super relevant to our legal and the education process. Can’t wait til the cash strapped school districts gets sued and have to spend thousands to get laughed out of court because of political theater.

They’re being honest here- the main purpose is about Pandering to their base so they can keep their cushy jobs and back door money

I think we have bigger issues than pretending to be upset about this bullshit.

What about the whole "separation between church and state"? You seem to be pretty by the letter of the law with gun rights but somehow this fall under don't worry about it to you?

Can you explain why you don't care about keeping religion out of government when it is spelled out in the founding documents?

Good for them? This isn't establishing a state church, and I don't live in Louisiana to get my testes in a twist over some kids having "don't murder" on the wall of the town with the highest murder rate in the country.

The separation of church and state is constitutionally mandated. Federal law supercedes state law.

No it's not. The establishment of a national church(like the Church of England) is, because at the time states did have their own religions. The rest are interpretations that have nothing to do with the "founding fathers" because they were court cases like 180 years after they died, and even those were concerning public schools paying the salaries of teachers at private Catholic schools.

Why is he a goat fucking mongoloid?

 

[Mr Holmes]

They shouldn't have done that. It was the wrong thing to do.

In which Muslim majority country would you NOT find that?

I at least applaud your honesty for admitting you want to follow the same model as Muslim-majority countries.

I would have agreed a few years ago. Not so now. Why do I suspect the same people upset about this are the same people who'd be upset at me for not wanting gay anal dildo porn in the kids library?

This is the most confused analogy I’ve seen in quite awhile, for a bunch of reasons. The fact that isn’t happening in any significant way, the books that are being banned are merely there in the library for someone to voluntarily choose to check out, and the fact that we specifically have a constitutional amendment to prevent things like that religious display being just 3 of those reasons.

But no, it’s not always libs that have an issue with this. There was a case awhile back in which a school had a class which covered various cultures, their respective religions, language, styles of writing, etc. I have no issue with religion being covered in that context (with other cultures and religions equally, in a specific elective class).

Problem was when they studied Muslim cultures, they had each student write in Arabic whats called the Shahada: “There is no other god but Allah.”
Now I don’t know about you, but to me that sounds like forcing a student to make a profession of faith, and that’s exactly how a Christian student and his family saw it.
So believe me, Christian righties get just as rustled when this is done to them by someone else as other people do when it’s done to them by Christian righties.
