"Rosenthal introduced an amendment that would have required public schools to display the Jewish and Catholic versions of the Ten Commandments, in addition to the Protestant version, which all have slightly different wording. The amendment’s failure to pass, he argued, showed the hypocrisy of the bill’s supporters.
“The fact that they will argue it’s only about values and not about religion, I think it’s a pretty disingenuous talking point,” he said. “The whole thrust of this, I think, is to get a case in front of a newly formed Supreme Court.” The U.S. Supreme Court has had a 6-3 conservative majority since 2020."
Those could be useful in case some tyrant takea over and says he’s your god now, like he’s some Egyptian pharaoh building gold statues to himself…it’s a declaration of independence for another age :D
…not that modern fanatics could ever reach that conclusion, they couldn’t spot satan even if it were telling them to vote for him to punish the unbelievers.
