A Louisiana law requiring public schools to display the Ten Commandments in every classroom can stand, the 17 active judges on the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals have ruled — vacating an earlier preliminary injunction.
Surely this will fix everything that is currently wrong in Louisiana.
Who needs hospitals or voting rights when you can have the 10 commandments installed in every classroom instead.
Fuck you you nazi redneck fucks
The people who want them displayed are the same ones who don’t follow them. Bunch of hypocrites
Especially not using the lords name in vain. They want it to mean don’t say oh my God, but that doesn’t have anything to do with it. That means don’t say God tells you to do X or don’t do y when God didn’t actually say. Similar to people saying stop in the name of the king.
One of those misinterpretation that helps bad actors take advantage of people
Bunch of hypocrites
Really? That’s worth repeating at this point? Color me shock!
At this point, saying Trump and his supporters are hypocritical is like saying the sun rises in the east.
Just having one of those moments where the sheer nutty-ness of this whole shit show is overwhelming.
These people are simultaneously:
- covering up a ring of pedophile rapist murderers
- engaging in obscene levels of corruption, billions of dollars in the open
- imposing taxes on America’s poorest
- actively supporting genocide
- taking the moral high ground by creating a theocracy
I know we’re all living with these thoughts every day but every now and again I just want to scream about it.
Just to recap on what you’re saying? This regime is:
- a bunch of pedophiles and pedophile protectors
- corrupt as fuck
- robbing citizens blind
- killing brown people en mass
- becoming real life Handsmaid Tale
That right?
Fine. Now let’s help get the Seven Tenets and Four Noble Truths posted right next to them.
those are the two I like.
News: shitty ass decision gets made by a federal court
Me: 5th circuit?
Govt: yup
Though shalt not fuck with the constitution
Church & state DO NOT belong together.
Let’s not force religion upon those who are there to learn.
It is the year 2026. The US Constitution no longer applies.
Blessed be.
Then I guess the 9 satanic commandments can also be shown in schools, right?
I’d prefer the 8 “I’d really rather you didn’t” rules of Pastafarianism be displayed. The Church of the flying spaghetti monster’,s rules were always pretty reasonable to me:
-
Don’t act all self-righteous: Don’t act like you’re better than everyone else when describing my Noodlesome Holiness. If some people don’t believe in me, that’s okay. Really, I’m not that vain.
-
Don’t use my existence to oppress: Don’t use my existence as a means to oppress, subjugate, punish, eviscerate, and/or, you know, be mean to others. I don’t require sacrifices, and purity is for drinking water, not people.
-
Don’t judge people by how they look: Don’t judge people by the way they look, or how they dress, or the way they speak, or, well, just play nice, okay?
-
Don’t indulge in behavior that offends yourself: Don’t indulge in behavior that offends yourself, or your willing, consenting partner of legal age and mental maturity. As for anyone who might object, I think the expression is “go fuck yourself,” unless they find that offensive, in which case they can turn off the TV for once and go for a walk.
-
Don’t challenge the ideas of others on an empty stomach: Don’t challenge the bigoted, misogynist, hateful ideas of others on an empty stomach. Eat first, then go after the bastard.
-
Don’t build expensive churches/temples: Don’t build multimillion-dollar churches/temples/mosques/shrines to my Noodlesome Holiness when the money could be better spent ending poverty, curing diseases, living in peace, loving with passion, and lowering the cost of cable.
-
Don’t go around telling people I talk to you: Don’t go around telling people I talk to you. You are not that interesting. Get over yourself. And I told you to love your fellow man, can’t you take a hint?
-
Don’t do unto others as you would have them do unto you if you are into leather/lubricant/lasciviousness: Basically, if the other person is into it, then go for it (see suggestion #4), but if they aren’t, don’t force it.
I agree. They should show them too. But Satanism makes them furious.
-
The court said it’s too early for the judges to decide if having the Ten Commandments posted in every classroom in Louisiana would violate the Constitution.
Why, is it 5:30am and they’re all still in bed?
I’m guessing a translation is something like, “We have absolutely no idea how we might argue this is okay in defiance of literally every court decision on this in history, so we’re just going to hope they don’t escalate.”
Don’t forget the 11th commandment.
“Thou shalt consider the supreme law of the land as mere suggestion, for thy personal whim shall outweigh the parchment of the founders.”
They’re Republicans, so they already have an 11th commandment created by Ronald Reagan in the 1960s, I shit you not. “Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican.”
It’s one of the reasons Trump so easily took over the GOP, that they had a stupid rule that they followed that emphatically placed party before country, created by a president who seemed to specialize in making sure that the future was as shitty as possible.
I still say Ronnie Raygun is easily far, far worse than Nixon. Probably the worst until Pedonald came along.
He had (objectively) the most criminal administration in history, when you count indictments. He set up things for Faux and hate radio. He did a lot for the cult of supply side economics. And he got away with Iran/Contra, as did Bush Senior, which sent the message to Republicans about how they will get away with future crimes.
I just don’t think you can compare Nixon and Reagan and come to a conclusion which is worse. It’s like the old thought experiment. “If a person who had never had an evil thought in their lives does a good deed, is it greater or less than the same deed performed by a person who had mostly committed bad deeds in their life?”
Not that either Reagan or Nixon would be a good man.
I basically view Nixon as being a thoroughly evil calculating man. The reason he created the EPA and considered progressive policies was that they furthered his political career, and he didn’t care if anybody else benefitted or was harmed.
Reagan, on the other hand, I view as an emotionally driven man. He was obsessed with appearances and with winning. He was sort of like a smarter version of Trump.
Anyways, the problem is that I think Nixon the man was a far worse person than Reagan the man. And Reagan’s corruption may not have been possible except for the way that Nixon’s corruption paved the way, and that Nixon’s downfall stoked Reagan’s fears of losing.
Fucking dumb considering trump started out his presidential path as Reform, then switched to Democrat, then to republican, then back to dem, then to republican… so really he’s just a bandwagon poser pedophile piece of shit and I think this ‘rule’ the dumbfuck republicants made should be null and void to this childfucker.
Well, as long as he projected the racist stuff (and he broadcast that with a bullhorn with all his birther bullshit prior to running) they adopted him as a true-blue conservative and Republican.
Awww yea, here comes The Satanic Temple to even things out!
Why do they hate America so much? Nobody’s forcing them to stay.
They think THEY are america. Heritage foundation… stupid entitled fuckbags.
For christ‘s sake, wtf!
Maybe they will finally read them
