Louisiana has become the first state to require that the Ten Commandments be displayed in every public school classroom under a bill signed into law by Republican Gov. Jeff Landry on Wednesday.

The GOP-drafted legislation mandates that a poster-sized display of the Ten Commandments in “large, easily readable font” be required in all public classrooms, from kindergarten to state-funded universities. Although the bill did not receive final approval from Landry, the time for gubernatorial action — to sign or veto the bill — has lapsed.

Opponents question the law’s constitutionality, warning that lawsuits are likely to follow. Proponents say the purpose of the measure is not solely religious, but that it has historical significance. In the law’s language, the Ten Commandments are described as “foundational documents of our state and national government.

    Agreed 100%. But we must not forget that Muslims worship a pedophile as their profit. And devout jews still have rabbis suck the blood off the freshly circumcised baby as tradition dictates.

    All of these abrahamic religions are absolute trash. And we can’t forget the recent offshoots Mormonism and scientology.

    Remember folks, all of these assholes get massive amounts of undeserved tax breaks for no reason, and you dont.

    EDIT: I didn’t mean to imply scientology is an offshoot of the abrahamic religions. It’s just a recent offshoots religion, that gets tax breaks like the rest. Poorly worded.
