[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] yes. There is. I don't want my kids to be shamed into behavior based on a stupid book written a couple thousand years ago by a bunch of drunk guys. [/quote] Which specific commandments do you think people shouldn’t be “shamed” for? The Ten Commandments are a set of religious and ethical directives that God gave to Moses, according to the Bible. Scholars disagree about when the Ten Commandments were written and by whom, so apparently you know more than they do because you know “a bunch of drunk guys” wrote them. Do you have a cite for that? Please share.

However, 5 of the 10 (1, 2, 3, 4, 10) are not universally considered to be moral standards. But you want to push all of the commandments, including the ones that are strictly Christian on everyone. I have no problem if you want to cut out commandments 5-9 and post them as general rules of morality. But no, you don't get to post the entire list of 10 commandments in a public school that essentially allows you to make the public school a Christian-based institution. You are welcome to do this if you want to do a comparative religion exercise and show examples of other doctrines of morality from other religions. [/quote]
