VeeTexas public school teachers are now required to post the Ten Commandments in their classroom. Here’s how one teacher is handling it.
Asbestos@VeroniqueB99
they passed this vote on a Sunday. so they broke a commandment.
@VeroniqueB99

Robin Barton@VeroniqueB99 She missed the pastafarian eight things I would rather you didn't (https://doctorspaghetti.org/our-faith/)
Oz is tired@VeroniqueB99 brilliant!

HappyCrow13@VeroniqueB99 Edit cuz I can't fucking read. I now see the poster with the 7 tenants. Makes my little Satanist heart happy
SarahATX@HappyCrow13 @VeroniqueB99 I was JUST about to comment on that one 😂🤘🖤

Elon Muksis 🇺🇦 🇵🇸 🇪🇺@VeroniqueB99 The Eight Condiments of Flying Spaghetti Monster is missing.
SQLAllFatherDelighted to see the Seven Fundamental Tenets posted too.
MorguninAnother example of the separation of church and state in action…
obscurestar@VeroniqueB99 See now, I'd post them as a list with pictures of Trump breaking every single one.

Totally bonkers! Religion is a human invention to control humans. You are from the univers and you will return to the univers. Religion kills progress.The schooled people in the old days had the power (books etc.) just as now how social media and TV is used.

@VeroniqueB99 Never thought I'd say this but, "I'd like to see Scientology represented too." Really drive home just how scammy and made up religions are.
I mean Joseph Smith's Space Jesus is no less ridiculous than scientology's Space Jesus and Hubbard is a more coherent and engaging fiction author.
@obscurestar 🤣 👍 but no. It's not a religion. It's a sect. A cult.
@VeroniqueB99 Which one? Mormons or scientologists?
@obscurestar Scientology
@VeroniqueB99 @obscurestar I mean, they're all cults. Scientology is just a new cult.

According to my French (lapsed) Catholic friends the Church of England is a cult.

GhostOnTheHalfShellI think it would be very instructive to focus especially on the ninth commandment.
That’s the commandment that forbids false witness
mike805@VeroniqueB99 The best way to prevent fundamentalism of any variant is to teach people comparative religion. When people can see how the tenets of their "default" faith evolved from previous traditions, it is hard to be a "my book or go to hell" fanatic.
Speaking of hell, we can also see how the imagery of hell evolved from ancient Egypt through Dante. In an earlier variant, for example, the lake of fire was a moat to keep people in.
Flipper 🐬🏳️🌈@VeroniqueB99 should also put up the five tenets of the Dark Brotherhood.
_we know_
Em & future cats 🇺🇦🐈🏳️🌈@VeroniqueB99 This is brilliant 😻… (I have to admit, just by this image alone, maybe we should all do this 😹)
BoloMKXXVIII@VeroniqueB99 Do they say what size the 10 commandments must be? Can it be set at 2 pt. type and mounted up near the ceiling?
Taran Rampersad@VeroniqueB99 looks right to me.
Andres@VeroniqueB99 #Alt4You #AltText: A generic grey filing cabinet in a classroom. 11 signs/posters/pictures cover most of it. The top row is pics of 4 (Hindu?) dieties. Below that, a poster reading "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion..." Next to it, "5 Pillars of Islam" (with a list). Below that, the Christian "The 10 Commandments". Next to it, "The Seven Fundamental Tenets". Below it, "Buddhism Knowledge." Next to that, "I am Hindu." Each has lists of rules/beliefs.
AndyHat@Andres4NY @VeroniqueB99 As a Lutheran, I have to point out that the 10 Commandments in this picture are wrong. (Of course, the fact that Christians can't even agree on how to number the 10 Commandments just emphasizes the folly of a government requirement that they be posted.)
@Andres4NY 🙏 TY!!
Manannán mac Lir 🇺🇦 🇵🇸Can't wait for someone to have a heart attack over the Tenets being included.
Birgit M.@VeroniqueB99 I like this collection

Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
Hot dogs on Fridays.
The Cyberwitch@VeroniqueB99 the satanic 7 tenants at the same size, color, and eye level is a nice touch
Johns@cyberwitch @VeroniqueB99 You made me have another look at the image, didn't see anything satanic on it.
Religion, as everything created by human beings, can be used for good and for the worst things you can imagine.
Religious zealots are the worst we humans can offer.
@Johns_priv @VeroniqueB99 its the list on the left, its the 7 Tenants of The Satanic Temple, which is up on their website. And yep Satanism can be pretty wholesome actually. Just ask any fan of Ghost.
Dynamik428@VeroniqueB99 That teacher is original in opposition against stupidity. This teacher is basically a hero
