Secretoriginz: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion..."

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Louisiana becomes the first state to require that the Ten Commandments be displayed in public school classrooms.

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion..."

Vs "thou shall have no other gods before me" Seems like they don't mix.

Good thing they're separated.

They will only stay separate if we stop them from mixing.

that’s the bible, not our country’s laws.

Hopefully it stays that way. A

Do you have different ten commandments in US than in Spain? We don’t have that one, the Spanish one is something like “you’ll love God over any other thing” Maybe are different translations or come from a different version of the Bible? 🤔

I guess because it's a state law it's allowed? Is that an incorrect conclusion?

No...it's not allowed unless SCOTUS goes rogue again & decides it is.

Great 🥲

Incorporation Doctrine and the full incorporation of the first amendment are settled constitutional law. The 1A establishment clause applies to states. But is anything settled with SCOTUS these days?
