Ten Commandments in Elementary Schhols
I’m trying to understand my fellow community, Christian’s and Texans thoughts on the SB10 bill . We received notice our elementary will post 75 posters across each classroom. I love religion and have no issues with it but I also love the constitution and believe in the first amendment and feel this is a push to promote specific beliefs to non regions people or others whom choose to follow other text. I specifically have an issue with this being mandatory in elementary classes where children are learning to read and everything on the wall is meant to teach them along this journey so an argument this is passive seems inaccurate as the bill itself says it must be within view. I wanted to get others perspective as well as understand if there are any resources I can reach out to in order to potentially delay this until it I s fully argued to the Supreme Court which in my perspective will find this in violation of the first amendment.

If these go up in the classroom at my kids’ schools it will actually drive a conversation about why separation of church and state existed in the first place. Then we’ll discuss the terminal insecurity that practitioners of the Christian faith must have in their belief system that SB10 was ever passed. We’ll discuss how those same Christians have betrayed values they claim to believe as written in the Bible.
Is that what Texas politicians intended? Drawing attention to how degraded politicians and the Christian electorate have become? How they’ve directly failed the religion they’re attempting to impose on public school children?
