I get that some people want to bring religious values into schools, but this seems like it could overstep the line between church and state. The government shouldn’t be in the business of promoting any particular religion, especially in public schools where kids come from all kinds of backgrounds. At the same time, I don’t think religion needs to be completely erased from public life—students should still have the right to pray if they choose. Forcing the Ten Commandments into classrooms feels unnecessary and could create more division than unity. Texas should focus on improving education overall instead of pushing laws that are bound to spark legal challenges.
