    A very similar, 1 line shorter post was rejected before, but I can't
    figure out why, or if it was done by the moderator or automatically.

    The email included this link, http://usemod.miller-networks.com:5813/mlm/mlm.charter but it did not
    help.


    1) The Louisiana legistlation in the last couple days passed a law
    requiring the 10 Commandments to be prominently legibly displayed in
    every state classroom from kindgarten to university. The governor
    hasn't signed or vetoed it yet.

    How can this be constitutional? (I'm sure it's not.)


    2) For example, https://www.lbc.edu/military/
    We offer an array of associates, bachelors, master�s and doctoral
    degrees for military students and military dependents seeking to use the
    Post 9/11 GI Bill �, Yellow Ribbon Program or other VA educational
    benefits to further their education. Our academic programs and degrees seamlessly integrate biblical content across every professional area of
    study, so you�ll benefit from studying through a Christian worldview.
    Study online anywhere or while you�re deployed overseas, at our main
    college campus in Lancaster, or at our metropolitan area locations in Philadelphia and Washington, D.C. Wherever and however you decide to
    study with LBC, you can be sure you�re getting a quality education. If
    you have any questions, our dedicated School Certifying Officials can
    help you find the answers.

    How is this constitutional?

    The first one, Lousiana, is only pending. But this one, the VA
    programs, is in operation (for a long time, I think?).

    I think you can tell, but just to be sure:
    I am not a lawyer.

    Under prior decisions of the Supreme Court, it's not constitutional,
    with the possible exception of a display that has similar documents from
    other religions.

    That's the rule up to now. But with the Court now stacked with people
    who think the Bible is superior to the Constitution, legislators are
    testing to see whether the rules can be changed.
