Courthouse News reports: Arizona’s House Education Committee advanced a bill Tuesday that would allow public school teachers and administrators to post and discuss the Ten Commandments in the classroom. State Senator Anthony Kern [photo], the bill’s sponsor, says the Ten Commandments shaped the country’s heritage. “Our history is the Ten Commandments,” the Republican from Glendale …

Why wait for classroom debate?
“Which is the most important?”
There is a solid theological answer to that question within the context of Christianity, which is that there are REALLY only two of them.
If they say they all equally important: light them up for how fucking poorly they understand their own holy book.
If they are consistent and answer 2, then why you proposing a bill for 10?
Did they ever read the ten comandments? I’m not religious myself vut I think one of them says something “you shall not lie”. Maybe Republicsns should start with actually abiding to it first…
So when you pay for sex and also make her sign an NDA is it not “adultery” anymore?
Don’t be stupid, God has good lawyers that can get around any NDA
Nah, all the good lawyers are in Hell
Wait until they read the second one “Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water”
Thou shall not kill
… makes you wonder about a few things in American culture …
- gun ownership, which causes deaths by people in the thousands every year (intentional and accidental and self inflicted), basically most personal firearms are meant for one thing … to kill people.
- military industrial complex which is the vehicle and cause of mass human death around the world
- death penalty, if your Bible says do not kill, why do you have laws that say you should kill
Technically, as I understand it, that is a mistranslation. It should be “Thou shalt not commit murder”. Executions and killing in war are perfectly okay with the god of the Bible. It’s only *illegal *killing that you should refrain from. In fact, there are numerous places in the Bible where the readers are told to kill people in god’s name. So you can get right out there and start killing men, women, and babies with no worry that you’ll go to hell for it.
I think its going to be great the kids talk about the ten commandments and the seven tenets. Not sure if anyone else will join in.
Fuck off, much as you’d like the USA to be a Christian theocracy, the rest of us aren’t on board with that.
Do a quick web search of “the seven tenets”.
Okay I’m back in haha
