Reading David C. Hoffman's American Freethought (2025) and saw the National Liberal League's 1880 presidential platform, including this plank:
"Universal education the basis of universal suffrage in this secular republic."
As true now as it was then.

#MSNBC analyst Angela-something characterized the Oklahoma law requiring teaching of the Bible in classrooms as an instance of the tension between the Establishment and Free Exercise clauses of the First Amendment.
Er. . . what? That’s 180° wrong, and you don’t even have to be a lawyer to see it. If the law engages with Free Exercise at all (debatable), surely it’s violative — as it quite obviously is with respect to the Establishment Clause.
In other words: the two clauses are working together against this law. That’s the opposite of “tension”.
MSNBC, either you quoted Angela way out of context, or you need a new analyst (preferably one who took at least one con law class).

"[Louisiana's] HB71 also specifies what those schools can’t say. A school or teacher could not, for example, decide to display copies of Thomas Jefferson’s Letter to the Danbury Baptists (building a 'wall of separation between Church and State') alongside the Ten Commandments," (continued in /2)

Because they see the willingness of the right-wing bloc controlling the court to erode the church-state line, these states are seeking to set up cases that will open the door for the Supremes to overturn precedents affirming church-state separation.
Once that separation is overturned, church obtains the power to rule, to coerce, to force the majority who do not agree with its ideas to dance to its tune. This is ultimately what the minority wants.
-
As Lisa Needham notes, Louisiana's Ten Commandments law is designed to give the right-wing Supreme Court justices who want to erase the line between church and state cherry-picked pseudohistorical examples to justify that erasure.
Driven by a powerful evangelical minority, a number of states are "hoping to bend the Constitution until it breaks."
