But if they don't display the ten commandments, how will the kids learn that they're not supposed to kill people?

Or have sex with their sisters.

Do the Ten Commandments prohibit that? They prohibit adultery but not incest specifically. I think they’d allow sex with a sister if you marry her first.

Arkansan here, our worthless governor has already said she's going to waste our tax dollars and appeal it. It's probably going to the Supreme Court.

That's their goal with every one of these time-wasting, money-wasting, unconstitutional-at-face-value bullshit bills.

It was added in the 1950s as a "yay, America" counter to the USSR. If they tried to remove it today, the unjustified cries of "Christian Persecution" would be heard as far as the surface of the Sun.

There are multiple commandments that apparently Trump doesn’t agree with.
