I am on the side of what I think is right. If it is not coercive, I have no trouble with Good Friday or Mardi Gras. But holidays, whether personal or religgious, should be evenly administered.I am surprised that you would say that, given the fact that you are consistently on the right side of the issues. In this case, the issue is not coercion. It is favoritism for one religion over others. When I supervised a unit in a state agency in New Jersey, I had to deal with Jewish and Muslim employees who had to vie for and fight for the right to have their holiday off. Christians did not have to .
It already has. A Kentucky law was overturned in 1980. This entire process is moot. SCOTUS will never see it as the lower courts will overturn it based on precedent.Why would it be overturned? The 10 commandments are represented in the Supreme Court of the US. It's also a historic document.

Then why is there no reference to Christianity in the Constitution/ Why the establishment clause of the 1st Amendment?
That is not any legal guidence for Constitution or law making.its in the declaration of independence ...

How about posting the Five Pillars of Islam?
We posted the 10 Commandments in our Florida classroom in the late 90, but the legislature did not require it, and it was funded by outside sources. I believe it was also overturned after I left.The 10 commandments are part of our historical record in the US official documents of our founding. Any public school should have the choice to display it. I don't think it should be forced though.
This has been done by Kentucky, Florida and Texas since it first occurred and that are just three that was able to find. This is simply ignorant politicians trying to drum up support for religion in schools that is blatantly unconstitutional.And it will be appealed. You don't quit, you just keep pushing, kind of like the way the commies have pushed their crap on us. SCOTUS has abandon previous precedent more than 200 times, the latest being ROE.

No, I don't think they will, because they have not done so in the past.The Supreme Court now, will more than likely vote for the commandments.
it states that our rights are endowed by GOD .That is not any legal guidence for Constitution or law making.
You have heard it said that they will put up a version of the 10 commandments in schools, but I say unto you whosoever will follow the establishment clause will avoid the fires of Christian Nationalism.
What law required them to do this? All schools were not required to do this by law.Watch them ignore this
Really? Where? God is not mentioned in the Constitution at all.it states that our rights are endowed by GOD .
Already has been, numerous times.This will be decided by SCOTUS.
That was the key point you missed. States did not have to abide by the Bill of Rights until the 14th Amendment in the 1860s.So things that were perfectly legal in the colonies that set up the federal government suddenly became illegal when they ratified the Constitution? States had official religions that were supported by the States. And all churches are subsidized by the federal and State governments via having tax exempt status. Exactly what religion do you think is being established in LA?

No. Again, states were required to follow the Bill of Rights by the 14th Amendment.Well that's just a lie, the prohibition was on congress, not the States, at the time of ratification. SCOTUS took it upon themselves to rewrite the 1st Amendment. That may well change with this case. BTW, why didn't you answer my question?

Some students in those classrooms do.USA doesn’t ascribe to Islam
