Senate Bill 10 would require the display of the Ten Commandments in all public-school classrooms. SB 11 would allow for periods of prayer or Bible reading in public and charter schools. Both are likely to face legal challenges under the First Amendment’s Establishment Clause.

"The Supreme Court’s Fake Praying Coach Case Just Got FakerLast year, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of a high school football coach’s right to engage in “brief, quiet, personal” prayer—despite photographic evidence that his prayers were drawn-out, loud, and extremely public. . . Kennedy appeared to have little interest in taking back his old job, . . Then he acknowledged that he had sold his house and moved across the country . . ."

#schoolprayer redux. To simply say that God hates democracy will piss a lot of people off, but let's face it, the American hoi polloi worship the King of Jews, or at least pretend to. Does no one notice that nobody votes or gets elected in the Bible? No corroboration of witnesses. Slaves. Theocrats want a stinking king, even if it has to be Trump. The one thing everybody agreed on in 1789: no stinking king. -
