Texas can require the Ten Commandments to be displayed in public school classrooms, a U.S. appeals court ruled Tuesday in a victory for conservatives who have long sought to incorporate more religion into schools.

The ruling sets up a potential clash at the U.S. Supreme Court over the issue in the future. Arkansas and Louisiana have passed similar laws, which have also been challenged in courts.

And Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey signed a similar law earlier this moth.

    Maybe this will make children question the morality of right wing politicians more.

    Why has Trump broken all 10 commandments, for instance.

      A daily morning pledge to a flag definitely turned me against the State as a propaganda bullshit machine.

      …But I’m afraid most people just got brainwashed and thought I was weird for abstaining.

        Yeah, it truly is weird. I genuinely forgot about this until I was at my son’s school one day that early.

      That’s the way I want to see it, 10 commandments with examples of how federal and local politicians have violated them.
