Texas is preparing to force schools to display The Ten Commandments,
in a victory for hardline Christian activists.
The ‘Ten Commandments’ bill easily passed the state’s
Republican- held House of Representatives on Sunday and must return to
the state Senate for final approval before send-off to Governor
Greg Abbott, who is expected to sign the legislation into law.
Under the proposal, a 20-inch tall “durable poster or framed
copy” of the biblical laws would be displayed in a “conspicuous
place” in every primary and secondary school classroom across
the state.
And, so, yes, they should display the 10 Commandments!

And what about the 'commandments' of Mohammed ? Of 'Satan' ?
Of Zeus and Woden and Enki ? Of the Buddha and Krishna ???
Sorry - but RIGHT UP FRONT the US constitution says the

The Founders lived in that kind of world and KNEW why
it shouldn't be that way.
The USA isn't supposed to be an ANY "-ian" country.
Don't care HOW many fanatics there may be for the

The thing about the commandments' being there is that it subtly influences them, frankly, against Christianity. They know it's being pushed on them. It's even a bad idea evangelically, let alone constitutionally as you mention.

I am more concerned that the commandments will be presented in the short
form popularized by some English translations. So much meaning is lost to the causal reader. Hopefully there will be discussions about such concepts and the more complete meaning revealed.
Hide from the truth if you want. Seek and so much more is revealed when
you are ready.

I think I get what you're saying. The State trying to
FORCE a religion on people generally results in an
even larger COUNTER-reaction soon enough. Humans, esp
kiddies, are naturally contrary. What The Establishment
demands, THEY go counter by instinct.
It's why the kids of the uptight 40s/50s gen turned
into hippie-dippie commie types - and THEIR kids
went corporate/Wall-Street yuppie. "Just Say No"
became "Just Say MORE Please !".
However "the culture", USA anyhow, IS more fractured
now. You don't get MASS cultural shifts, just factions
who tend to make war on each other. MIGHT be a large-
scale EVIL plan though to prevent unified resistance
to the Real Masters. Read yer Machiavelli ... the
Real Masters have LONG been there, just behind
the curtain. Their only politic is POWER.
Eh, maybe, probably not. I think this one specifically is just Texas' religious conservatives' trying to evangelize or at least increase Christianity's influence.
