Oklahoma’s state superintendent on Thursday directed all public schools to teach the Bible, including the Ten Commandments, in the latest conservative push testing the boundaries between religious instruction and public education.

The superintendent, Ryan Walters, who is a Republican, described the Bible as an “indispensable historical and cultural touchstone” and said it must be taught in certain grade levels.

The move comes a week after Louisiana became the first state to mandate that public schools display the Ten Commandments in every classroom, which was quickly challenged in court. The Oklahoma directive could also be challenged and is likely to provoke the latest tangle over the role of religion in public schools, an issue that has increasingly taken on national prominence.

    Sure, I would so would most people. I do however know that most of these trash humans have undiagnosed, serious mental disorders. They know it to. That is why these types are against any type of therapy that isn’t religious. Their religion only though.

        I consider npd and/or bpd to be a mental health disorder. These types are more often than not are squarely in that area on mental health. You have to have certain mindset to think you can speak for everyone else on a subject. The bigotry is just a comorbidly.
