It is immaterial what you think about the Ten Commandments. We do not live in a theocracy governed by one religion. If you want your kid to be surrounded by biblical teachings, then enroll him/her in a religious school.

So not killing people and not lying and not stealing are religious teachings?

It's all good. Print them and put them up everywhere! I can't believe they weren't put up sooner. I look forward to when the commandments appear in all schools and public buildings in my state. We need to show everyone who we are: a Christian nation.

Except the 1st Amendment clearly states that we are not a Christian nation. If you want a Christian nation, go create one. Only problem is that you'll actually have to act like a Christian is so-said nation.

Well you can teach your children the Ten Commandments are shameful and that they are free to do everything the Ten Commandments says not to do, with pride. Problem solved.

Where do you get that anyone is saying the Ten Commandments are shameful?

No one is saying that.

Actually someone said that and claimed the 10 commandments were written by a bunch of drunk guys. The moderator deleted the post but not the quote.

Someone feels very strongly that their children not be shamed into not murdering or lying or stealing.

You know darn well they are not talking about the secular laws (that also happen to be commandments) against murder, fraud, and theft. They are talking about worshipping a particular god, not having idols (some religions do and those are allowed to be practiced in the United States of America), and keeping holy a particular faith's sabbath, even though they may be of a faith with a different or no sabbath.

In any case, this is clearly unconstitutional and won't last.

That’s your opinion. I hope it lasts, because I work in a school and the students are being failed by their parents grievously. It’s truly sad.

How will slapping something on the wall in your classroom help your students, or their parents?

Are you an educator? Please, if you are not, get your teaching degree and certification and help teach kids. There’s a massive teacher shortage. It would be great for people like you to enter the classroom and help educate kids.

DP... That TOTALLY didn't answer the question. Again, how exactly will slapping a poster of the Ten Commandments help students?

How does it hurt?

By making kids who believe in different religions or no religion feel like outsiders.

I would love to see the reactions from the MAGAs if a Hindu teacher put up the Yamas and Niyamas in her classroom. Or better, if a Muslim teacher posted some quotes from the Quran.

Because the 10 Commandments are only for Christians, non-Christian people will feel like outsiders because they believe murder, theft, lying, etc, should not be forbidden?

are you crazy? do you know why the 10 commandments were given to? Moses? a prophet who is revered by most of the people in the world, what do the 10 commandments have to do with Christianity?

Progressives only know that they don't like Christians. They don't know anything about those other religions except that they need to keep quiet, or they will get the stick too.

Tell us what Christian tenets your dear leader embodies bigly.

Don’t worry I don’t expect you can actually answer this question.

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.

That's absolutely right. Trump is not a churchgoing man, and barely knows a damn thing about Christianity. He uses Bibles as props and throws around whatever random phrase he managed to partially remember like "Two Corinthians." The only times he ever sets foot in a church is when he is dragged there, like a wedding or a funeral or when his handlers make him show up for some official appearance. The deep delusion of people who think otherwise is astounding.

Here are the many ways Trump has not upheld the Ten Commandments


I LOVE THE TEN COMMANDMENTS IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS, PRIVATE SCHOOLS, AND MANY OTHER PLACES, FOR THAT MATTER. READ IT — HOW CAN WE, AS A NATION, GO WRONG??? THIS MAY BE, IN FACT, THE FIRST MAJOR STEP IN THE REVIVAL OF RELIGION, WHICH IS DESPERATELY NEEDED, IN OUR COUNTRY. BRING BACK TTC!!! MAGA2024

Here is the Protestant version of the Ten Commandments required by the Louisiana law (the Catholic version doesn’t qualify):

1. Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

The Independent, in March: “Trump Compares Himself to Jesus Christ — Again”.

2. Thou shalt not make to thyself any graven images.

The Guardian: “Trump Used His Charity’s Money to Pay for Portrait of Himself”.

3. Thou shalt not take the Name of the Lord thy God in vain.

Politico, 2019: “‘Using the Lord’s Name in Vain’: Evangelicals Chafe at Trump’s Blasphemy”. (Trump crowing, “They’ll be hit so goddamn hard,” while bragging about bombing Islamic State militants. And Trump recounting his warning to a wealthy businessman: “If you don’t support me, you’re going to be so goddamn poor.”)

4. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.

People magazine, 2022: “Donald Trump spent the Easter weekend enjoying two of his favorite activities, sources say: golf and greeting adoring guests at his Mar-a-Lago resort. On Saturday and Sunday morning, the former president played rounds of golf with members at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, a source tells People. ‘He is no longer president,’ says one insider, ‘so he doesn’t have to go to church.’”

5. Honor thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

Trump speaks highly of his father — from whom he inherited his handsome visage and enviable mane — so he’s clear on this one. Quite the man to honor, too. The Washington Post: “Trump’s father, Fred Trump, was arrested twice: in 1927 during a Ku Klux Klan riot, and in 1976 over code violations at a building he owned in Maryland.” The New York Times: “The Justice Department undertook its own investigation and, in 1973, sued Trump Management for discriminating against blacks. Both Fred Trump, the company’s chairman, and Donald Trump, its president, were named as defendants. It was front-page news, and for Donald, amounted to his debut in the public eye.”

6. Thou shalt not kill.

Trump, 2016: “You know what else they say about my people? The polls, they say I have the most loyal people. Did you ever see that? Where I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose any voters, OK? It’s like incredible.”

The Guardian, 2021: “US Could Have Averted 40% of Covid Deaths, Says Panel Examining Trump’s Policies”.

7. Thou shalt not commit adultery.

I mean come on.

8. Thou shalt not steal.

Trump University: “The lawsuits centered around allegations that Trump University defrauded its students by using misleading marketing practices and engaging in aggressive sales tactics. The company and the lawsuits against it received renewed interest due to Trump’s candidacy in the 2016 presidential election. Despite repeatedly insisting he would not settle, Trump settled all three lawsuits in November 2016 for a total of $25 million after being elected president.”

9. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.

CNN: “Former President Donald Trump has spent months spreading lies about the 2020 election, which he himself is now calling “THE BIG LIE” as he continues to claim that a massive conspiracy robbed him of a second term.”

10. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s house.

The Vera Coking house: “In 1993, Donald Trump bought several lots around his Atlantic City casino and hotel, intending to build a parking lot designed for limousines. Coking, who had lived in her house at that time for 32 years, refused to sell. As a result, the city condemned her house, using the power of eminent domain. She was offered $251,000, a quarter of what she was offered by Guccione 10 years earlier.”

Don't forget that Trump wants to execute all criminals no matter how small the crime.

Conservatives love the 10 Commandments except when they're not convenient. Like the killing bit. They think that it's okay to shoot a teenager just because you feel afraid of him even if he's not done a single thing to you.

Really, if you want Christian morals in the classroom, you need the Beatitudes on the wall. Those are directly from Jesus.

Come one, my conservative evangelical brethren, don't you agree?
