    Republicans are so damn stupid. Shoving this in kids faces is just going to make them less likely to become Christian.

    Your cult is dying off. You couldn’t indoctrinate your own kids and you think their kids are more susceptible? LMAO

    Clearly this is a reaction to people becoming less Christian. I agree though that displaying religious messages in schools isn’t going to do much if anything of making people more Christian.

    Part of me believes it's the same motivation behind conservative groups back during the civil rights era erecting Confederate statues.

    It's a method to show people who's in charge. It's a method to show society who has control of the cultural hegemony. It's basically a way for them to express "you people forget that this is a Christian nation".

    Lot of liberal tears in this thread. Can’t handle it that we are winning our religious freedom back from you communists.

    Ezekiel 23:20 should be taught in SexEd classes.

    There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses.

    Donate that to a school. Add "In God We Trust" to it for good measure.

    I thought it was taboo to gripe about what the kids are being taught.

    Only when they aren't really being taught what is claimed.

    I wonder what happens if someone donates a sign with "allah akbar" - is that required to be displayed?

    It’s freedom of religion, not freedom of fake religion. Learn.

    Only when right wing media creates false stories of school curriculums teaching 6 year olds how to perform blowjobs. Yes, right wing media literally passes stories around like that as a matter of fact.

    My understanding of the law is it would be. The law is technically religious neutral and as such that should be tested.

    It wouldn’t surprise me if the Church of Satan does do something like that.

    I think this is going to be very problematic for the Supreme Court of the Right Wing of the US. I imagine they will try to spin it as "In God We Trust" is non-denominational or not part of any sect. But one could also put, "In God we Hate"

    No one has ever stopped you from practicing your religion. if you say otherwise you're a liar. You've always had freedom to practice your religion.

    Tens of thousands of gods through out the earth's history and you just happened to be born into the "real" one and not one of the "fake' ones.

    Bless your heart.

    You are mistaken. He is upset that he doesn't have the freedom to impose is religion onto other Americans as the "official American religion". Part of his religion is dominating others with his religion therefore he is being denied from practicing his religion.

    Right @Commodore ?
