A Utah lawmaker is no longer pushing for public schools to display a copy of the Ten Commandments but wants to add other biblical precepts and the Magna Carta to the curriculum.
Says the know-it-all convert.
I’m not telling anyone to believe or not believe anything. I just wanted to point out the hypocricsy in those that want to plaster biblical verses over public schools.
Nah, you pointed to everyone that worships jesus and the ten commandments. Don’t act like you are not hypocritical for criticizing another religion but not your own.
I’m sorry, that i worded it poorly then. I only meant to critise those that demand the ten commandments or any other biblical text to be plastered over public schools.
Only biblical text?
Was there any other texts demanded to be put up by the Utah House?
You’re the one bringing up another religion.
And did i say anywhere that its texts should cover the walls of public schools? Of course i didn’t. Also abrahamic religions have many overlaps so contextualising them with each other is a good way to gain a deeper understanding. Given the importance of religion it is always good to learn about them, even if one doesn’t share the faith.
Why shouldn’t religious texts be covering the walls of schools?
