Yeah, it isn't like we don't have like 250 years of documents and court rulings saying this exact thing is clearly unconstitutional.
What part of "Louisiana" did you fail to grasp.
If they can pass a law to stroke off their "God-fearing" idiots while embezzling every dollar of federal funding they can, that's what they're going to do.
Waiting for the state law that says all federal highway funding has to be used for abortion prevention, specifically at the marketing firm run by the Governor's idiot brother.
No laws in the South, just cops.
A point that I would like ask is that USA is a secular country, then why Louisiana state is promoting non secular ideologies?
Because we're independent states, and unfortunately we have consistently failed to hold many of our lowest performing states to the standards all decent humans should hold.
Jim Crow took us 150 years to end, and we're still not completely free of it.
Mostly it's easier for us who don't live there, or no longer live there to ignore the nightmare they have to live through.
The constitution also clearly says this is unconstitutional.
In Texas two years ago it was a ballot question weather or not to put a wheelchair ramp on a federal court building, which is explicitly required by the ADA, an over 30 year old law, and they voted no. Laws don't matter if no ones gonna bring consequences.
“Your Honor, the separation of church and state.”
……..
“I rest my case.”
Has just been revoked.
Samuel Alito
Pretty sure that was Danny Glover.
Deep cut
"The phrase "separation of church and state" does not appear in the Constitution. However, the Establishment Clause in the First Amendment prohibits the government from establishing a religion or interfering with the free exercise of religion."
Jefferson letter:" I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should “make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,” thus building a wall of separation between Church & State."

So they're very closely related but don't go around saying it's in the Constitution because it isn't.
I don’t think I said it’s in the constitution.
This is exactly what they want to happen. They want this to get up to SCOTUS so SCOTUS can declare the U.S. a Christian nation.
If you read the law as written and voted on in Louisiana, it lists 11 Commandments, because there isn't one list of Commandments that these people can agree on. But they can agree that everyone should be forced to look at them in school?
