I fully expect the Satanic Temple to sue the district to have the seven tenets of Satanism to be displayed right along side the Ten Commandments.
And they'll probably win it.
I think this is just not the way to go. Does anyone really believe that having the 10 Commandments displayed in a school is going to change anyone?
I think this push to "put God back in the schools" is going to really cause more issues than it will solve. Parents or religious leaders should be the ones to instruct their children about religion. Not some teacher who most likely will have differing beliefs than theirs.
I'm sure Baptist parents would be pretty upset with a Catholic teacher telling their kids they need to say the rosary. Or a Calvinist telling them that predestination means there's no free will or something along those lines.
And then there's the issue of Non-Christian religions suing to have their religion given equal standing to Christianity in the schools.
