Supreme Court to Rule on School Ten Commandments | Texas News
from Texas News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
The Supreme Court is poised to make a historic ruling on whether Texas can force public schools to display the Ten Commandments — a move that could reshape religious expression in classrooms nationwide. Backed by the ACLU and 20+ families, challengers argue the law violates the First Amendment’s separation of church and state, calling it unconstitutional to mandate religious scripture for 13 years of education. While a lower court initially blocked the displays, an appeals court reversed that decision, citing student voluntariness. But critics say the law’s loophole — requiring only donated posters — led to a flood of conservative-backed displays as soon as last fall. Louisiana, Arkansas, and Alabama have followed suit, fueling a Southern push to embed religious texts in public education. The Court’s decision could set a precedent defining the limits of government-sponsored religion in schools. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
