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.
The judges justification was that displaying the 100% religious material does not force students to read or affirm the religious content. So, I’m looking forward to the Satanic Temple’s suit to allow them to display their own tenets now that school walls are an open forum for religious materials that are legally not pushing their religiousity on students. They’re a hell of a lot better a set of tenets anyway.

Also, these are the people who think having openly gay people on tv is indoctrinating kids
It technically is forcing them to read it. The way the human brain works, if you know how to read and you see writing, you typically physically can’t stop yourself from reading it
I like these better than the ten commandments. I especially like number 6
