Texas Senate
Passes Bill Requiring 10 Commandments in Every Classroom
The legislature also passed a bill forcing schools to set
aside time for students to pray and study religious texts.

Well, to me, this is indoctrination of the most presumptuous
kind; pushing a particular religion, Christianity, on the masses of such a culturally
diverse country as the U.S.
Children are in their formative years when in school. Such religious imposition is an attempt to formulate
their/a lifelong outlook on life, as it relates to religious beliefs. It’s shutting their “freethinking/critical
thinking box” up tight! I, for one, don’t like it.
If a child eventually comes to their own personal philosophies
on life, or is indoctrinated with them at home, that’s one thing. (I do believe parents/caretakers have their
right to impose their beliefs on their kids, though I might not agree with
those beliefs one tiny bit.) But to impose
such religious beliefs on the masses is quite another, IMO.
And you? What do you think of this bill that now moves to the Texas state House of Representatives for passage? Good, bad, indifferent, other?
