FRC: Ten Commandments Belong In Schools Because All The “Other Religious Ethical Statements Are Myths”

This is complete nonsense.  Our founding fathers were trying to escape the rule of a country run by kings and religion.  They could have made Christianity the nations religion but they did not, and did not want that.  I recently heard that the reason fundamentalist Christians want the ten commandments which is a Jewish symbol from the Old Testament instead of the beatitudes from the New Testament is they don’t like or follow Jesus but do like the vengeance, violence, and anger of the OT god.  These people should be listed as domestic terrorists.  They can not be compromised with.  They can’t be happy with them being allowed to live as they want, they demand the right to force you to live as they do.  They are a minority in a minority that is shrinking.  Yet they managed to get their people into positions of power so they are even more dangerous.   Hugs.  Scottie

 

Posted to the Family Research Council’s website:

The Louisiana legislature has passed a bill that “requires schools that receive public money to post the Ten Commandments in classrooms,” Family Research Council President Tony Perkins said on Thursday’s “Washington Watch,” and “the anti-Christian Left is convulsing.”

“We’re focused on the historical aspect of the Ten Commandments, which all of our laws are derived from,” bill sponsor Louisiana Rep. Dodie Horton (R) explained to Perkins.

Skeptics will still ask, but why are the Ten Commandments displayed and not other religious ethical statements, like the writings of Confucius or Native American myths? One answer is America’s historical development. This great nation was not built by Confucians or Muslims, but by people informed by the Bible and the moral teachings found therein.

Therefore, “We want our children to see what God’s standard for our moral conduct is,” urged Horton. “We’re not asking the teachers to teach it, but we want our children to be able to see one — that there is a God, and that he does have a moral standard [by] which they need to conduct themselves.”

Read the full article. In the interview below, Perkins tells Horton that lawsuits against posting the Ten Commandants in Louisiana schools will fail because “we’ve got a new [Supreme] court.” Horton replies, “We do, praise God!”

 

How can a Christian Nationalist group or groups dictate how public money, via taxes, be spent or allocated by forcing public schools to display religious text? That’s what Sunday school is for. When will all religions be taxed like any other corporation. Talk to me about grooming again.

  • Meanwhile, as a civil service worker, I haven’t had an actual raise, except for cost of living adjustments to bring us more on the lowest level of private enterprise, since I was hired. So I might get a 2 or 3 percent adjustment, but my health insurance goes up 5%.

    All three versions of the Ten Commandments, two in Exodus, and one in Deuteronomy, are based on the legal code of Hammurabi. There is some tweaking, to compensate for cultural differences, but they are, by and large, the legal code of Hammurabi.

     

  • ”This great nation was not built by Confucians…” These bitches really have no idea who this country was built by. See also: Enslaved people.

    Religion (of any type) belongs in their churches, synagogues, mosques, etc. It does NOT belong in our schools. The Christo-fascists are trying to force their beliefs onto kids and that’s just totally wrong. And should be illegal. And they are trying to force their religion into laws affecting everyone. Fuck that shit. I agree with so many commenters on here – religion is poison. Fuck their god, Jeezus and everything in their warped view of the world.

    “This great nation was not built by Confucians or Muslims”

    Christians wouldn’t have built shit without the mathematics the Muslims perfected, and Christians wouldn’t have “discovered” this continent if they didn’t have such a rabid taste for the goods the Confucians were selling them.

    Fred Clark wrote about the history of the La. Commandments poster law.

    Louisiana Will Post The Twelve Commandments In Schools

    ‘That’s a problem, because there are a lot of different versions of the Ten Commandments, all of which are phrased and enumerated differently. The version of “The Ten Commandments” mandated by Horton’s bill is not taken from any of those. It is, instead, the version concocted in 1950 by the Fraternal Order of Eagles and Cecil B. DeMille.

    Yes, really.’

    As you might predict if you didn’t know, the Fraternal Order of Eagles was a racist organization.

    “we’ve got a new [Supreme] court.” Horton repliess”

    They’re so high on their own farts right now. Never mind that new Supreme Court was put there by a convicted felon.

    Also I love it when I get lectured by Christians on why they’re God is real and the rest are fake.

    1. It occurs to me that with all the adultruss money-grubbing, false-witness bearing lying, cheating, coveting, stealing, killing, working on Saturday … in the name of god that the christians so readily engage in maybe we should be more supportive of their public display, to remind these inbred fucking monkeys how not to behave

      I am Human. I don’t need reminding what’s right and what is wrong

      Animals, bow down to gods. Human Beings, do not …

      1. Hello Ten Bears. 😜😛🙃😀🤣😂😉 I agree. But maybe I would put animals far higher than the likes of Tony Perkins and his ilk. To me they rank somewhere around slime mold. Only that has some purpose I am told. Hugs. Scottie
