Must be some authoritarian gawd with even more insecurity issues than Yahweh of yore.

and they have no qualms about holding the Bible and a gun while spurring lies, making up shit, steal amd cheat, condemning the less fortune, et al.

They are the four horsemen.

They have broken all of the 7 deadly sins.

...in the church of *their* choice.

"O Satan, hear my prayer.....in your name!"

to church to start their day with prayer ? Oh wait

--Pray the Rosary every Morning. Oh, no, Ken didn't mean that kind of prayer ----

The Orthodox Study Bible? (Eastern Orthodox)
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition? (Catholic)
Judaica Press Tanakh? (Orthodox Jewish)
The Bible in Living English? (Jehova's Witness)
Julia E. Smith Parker Translation? (Congregationalist)
The Holy Bible: Jah International Version: The Sacred Scriptures of Rastafari ? (OMG, there is even a Rastafari version)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_English_Bible_translations

Or, the prayers of Indigenous nations?

Or, any number of non-christian books?

Expect lawsuits, Paxton.

Power, control, obedience, brainwashing pure and simple.

Anyone whose religion at home is not associated with the particular version of the bible chosen by Paxton.

Jews, Catholics, Orthodox Christians, non-standard Christian groups, Mormons, all non-christian religions, all secular, atheist and agnostic people.

Paxton is now defining who does not belong in Texas.

Confession and resignation are good for the soul.

Paxton's demand that children tackle The Lord's Prayer is particularly vile, somehow. And once again I say: if Paxton makes it into the U.S. Senate, he'll make Ted Cruz seem pleasant, diligent, and moderate by comparison. He's already managed to make John Cornyn seem competent, something I didn't believe was possible.

Praying at the last shooting while being shot.

Other than that how exactly does this help? Waste of time.

I am sure there are plenty of people who are gearing up to sue the life out of your department and the entire state for ignoring federal law.

Now, as to how effective it will be.... well...

I won't think in your church if you won't pray in my school. Deal?

None of the "woke" stuff for Texas "Christians," huh.

Shove you prayers, your evil woman hating book, and your mass murdering imaginary friend up your ass.

Is he saying he wants more kids killed?

Constitution is no longer applicable in the United States.

Supreme Court no longer looks to the constitution or the law or precedent only to what they are told to do by the fascist dictator piece of shit.

I'm not sure what praying in school is really supposed to do.

Gun control would do a hell of a lot more good. IMO

Jewish kids to recite their prayers, and to accommodate all the religious beliefs and excuse those non believers, as per the constitution which says freedom of and from religion. They keep stepping on this issue but not the energy for gun safety in schools or warning systems for violent weather. And yet..the voters keep voting for these people..

I have to wonder how the Jewish kids dealt with this. There was no concern as far as I know.

We may have been required to have the Christmas story, straight from the New Testament, taught to us then. The little Jewish girl in my class was not forced to participate. In fact, she and her parents taught us all about Hanukah. Her parents invited the teacher to synagogue for a Hanukah event. She went, and told the class about it.

We all learned something, and had fun while learning.

I was enraged that I had to recite one that wasn't part of my faith.

stop bullets.

The school intercom had the reading after announcements

A few of us decided to have one of us to go and get inline for announcements and do a daily Koran reading

LOL…that lasted 2 days. But then ALL scripture readings stoped. It was on of my best LEARNING experiences!!

As long as there are tests, there will be prayer in schools

And

Prayer, the last refuge of scoundrels

Or students who don't believe in prayer or scripture? Would there be alternative ways for them to spend this designatrd time? Would they be punished for not praying or reading scripture?

I hope this gets to the Supreme Court. Even this Court would see the obvious constitutional violations.

That repeatedly cheated on his wife, apparently with other men (not that same sex relationships are bad, just the hypocrisy of people like Paxton)

and knows nothing about what it means to be a Christian.

He should have to publicly recite those pesky commandments against adultery and theft each and every day. I am certain most if not all of the ten apply to him. Not sure if he has murdered anyone directly.
