Louisiana orders every classroom to display Ten Commandments

How many times do we need to go over the same thing? It is harmful to the children from families that do things condemned by Christianity. Some kids have parents that are gay. Some kids are from families that don't believe in one Christian god. These kids have every right to go to the public school they pay for and not by indoctrinated with Christianity.

If you want the 10 commandments to feature in your child's education that is fine. But send them to a private school, not a public school funded by the taxpayers.

What, you didn’t know that there is a ton of differences among Christian sects and that Catholics even have a much different bible than Protestants? Now you do! Have at it. If Xianity is going to be our national religion we need to narrow it down to the which denomination.

The wording they chose is from the promotion campaign for the Charlton Heston movie. Not kidding.

It does hurt everyone. It's unconstitutional.

No. Blatantly ignoring the Constitution because we happen to like what’s being done does, in fact, hurt everyone. Because it makes it okay to ignore the Constitution the next time— you know, when they come for your musket because you aren’t in a well organized militia or shoot you for protesting at an abortion clinic.

The Constitution isn’t a buffet. You either follow it or you don’t. This pick and choose the pieces I like thing ends in insurrections and the like.

We say that about the 2A but everyone tells me we are reading it wrong. You are reading it wrong.

It’s dangerous for people to believe that other people grant rights. In the United States rights were are granted by God and no person has the moral standing to remove them.

lol. If god is granting rights it means she is granting to every human being not just Americans. Now that would be something else to argue in court.

Wanna know how I know you're a troll pretending to be someone very stupid?

Because there is no mention of a god in the constitution and every grammar school kid is taught that.

You are correct. But God is clearly referenced in the Declaration of Independence as are the inalienable rights granted to everyone. The constitution is the new governmental framework that protects those inalienable rights.

Correct. The founders were not particularly religious and many were skeptical of religion but even they saw virtue in originating the inalienable rights in a higher being rather than arbitrary rights agreed to by man, which in turn implies they can be bartered away. The US in the 18th century was also unquestionably a Christian world, the population, even the atheists, were intimately knowledgeable of the tenets and teaching of Christianity and the philosophy of the enlightenment that underpinned the creation of the United States was in turn heavily underpinned by Judeo-Christian thought.

Having said that, I do not agree there is a place for the 10 Commandments in Louisiana schools. George Washington wisely said it is not the government's job to preach morality, keep it to the private sphere. The same principle should apply to rainbow flags, which have clearly taken on quasi-religious and ideological overtures these days.

If we run with that, the rights you feel are granted to you are also granted to others. Your right to swing your fist ends where it would hit someone else's nose And a scenario of your "right" to preach the 10 Commandments wouldn't somehow then override someone else's "right" to preach the tenets of Haitian voudou.

The Declaration of Independence doesn't lay legal foundation. Only the Constitution does that.
