"Louisiana is the first US state to require the Ten Commandments to be displayed in schools. The law stipulates the following:
- Public schools are required to display a poster or framed copy of the Ten Commandments in every classroom, school library and cafeteria.
- They must be displayed on a poster of minimum 11×14-inch (28×35.5cm) size and be written in an easily readable, large font."
Separation of Church and State, my ass.
The library is still a resource for those who wish to learn more about religion, and I certainly used it while learning about various religions that I was not allowed to research at home.
Yeah, sure, they can be. The difference is that this is their JOB and they're EDUCATED.
If you trust parents "way more" than actual educators, then great! Pull your kids out of school and teach them yourself. That's always been an option. But don't go around proclaiming public school should be specifically engineered to make YOU comfortable.
You? Are nobody. Your opinion does not matter.
That's the job of schools. Okay, it's not all about parents. We stopped allowing parents to do everything because, as it turns out, most of them are fucking stupid.
So we have public school, where real things are taught. And now, most people aren't illiterate. So, yay us!
But this notion that everything should always bend over backwards to cater to what parents want... uh no. This is some 2000s bullshit. This is not the way it worked before. If parents don't want their kids learning about X, Y, Z then their options are either getting over it or pulling their kids out of school to home school. Bending the public school to whatever their dumbass whim is, isn't an option.
