Religious Freedom? Texans Say No to Being Outdone by Founding Fathers' Restraint

Yeah, sure, let's separate church and state. That way, we can keep the churches open and fill them with vulnerable old people who spread COVID to each other while the rest of us idiots pray for a vaccine. Keep religion out of politics? Sure, let's do that too. Unless it's to control women's bodies, then we can use it to make laws. Our founding fathers would be so proud. Morons.

GOP's Ten Commandments Poster: Adultery, Jesus, and Hypocrisy in the Classroom

Texas and Louisiana are pushing to adorn classrooms with the Ten Commandments, because clearly, education is lacking in these states.

"I'm required to put a poster on my wall that speaks to adultery?!"

Yes, Beverly Clark, a horrified primary school teacher from Wimberley, TX, will now have to explain to her first-graders why some adults have naughty extra-marital fun, all thanks to the GOP and their brilliant idea to plaster the Ten Commandments everywhere.

Clark, a Deist (like some of those stuffy Founding Fathers), is sick of hearing this nation was founded on Judeo-Christian laws. Separation of church and state, remember? Seems like the GOP has forgotten, along with their selective memory of the January 6 insurrection.

"The constant hypocrisy by the party of 'law and order'..."

Rona Distenfeld of Austin, TX, hits the nail on the head. The GOP, with their Bibles, would have Jesus rolling his eyes at their attitudes toward migrants and LGBTQ folks. You know, that whole "love thy neighbor" thing?

So, get ready kids, for a fun-filled school year of learning about the GOP-approved commandments, and don't forget to ask your teachers about adultery! It's not just for Americans anymore!
